STARTED THE MORNING OFF BY WORKING on the portable table contents. When I look at this table sit up in the KITCHEN covered with THINGS, I just about shut down. It screams for attention and I don't know where to go with it all.
I pick up an item, deal with it then go off to do something else. Each time I walk by the table an item is dealt with. This is a slow way to work on this, but it is a way. A pace I'm going by.
I don't know where the things are going to go in my TINY KITCHEN. Stop and think about it. Baby steps.
MY GOAL TODAY, is to get the table completely cleared off, turn the table and begin to gather ALL the pots 'n pans, bakeware, and cookware placing them in a orderly fashion to see just what I do have to deal with. THEN write the inventory down and take some pictures, printing the images off on paper making up a notebook.
This could get INTERESTING deciding where everything should go. After I get this far, I can continue sorting through the boxes on the floor until they are no more. At the rate I am going, it'll be SPRING before I have cleared all the boxes. SPRING is in about 100 days. Wonderful. I look forward to Spring flowers popping up after a long WINTER.
My CHRISTMAS decorating is finished for the year. The Nativity Scene is displayed in the Living room. The lit faux garland is hung in the doorway. Miniature trees are on the ledge of the Kitchen window. The front porch has a few things on it for the season. A couple of lamps on a table, a Christmas pillow on the church pew, some large containers of greens on the porch steps. That's it and that's enough for this year. Christmas is about celebrating the earthly birth of our SAVIOR and not so much about the festivities of decorating. Although the decorating warms my soul during such cold weather and the splashes of color add interest to the otherwise dreary color palette. The meager things we do to draw attention to JESUS have their place and I love CHRISTMAS TIME.
CHRISTMAS cards and letters this week. I'll have to stretch the time out that it takes to complete. Once again I have not gotten the cards sent early in the month. Some cookies and candy will be made next week. Gifts in the mail.
A HOME full of joyful sounds is wonderful.
Playing CHRISTMAS MUSIC continues and oh how I enjoy it.
