Festive Spirit

Yule Mantle
(Pretend that I actually have red or green tapered candles in those silver holders…)

I suppose I should post some kind of update, I’m still alive and kicking. Making lots of candles and pulling out Yuletide decorations. Do you prefer silvers and golds or reds and greens, or all of the above (like me!) I don’t know what it is about this year but I am in the festive mood earlier then usual. It is not even Thanksgiving yet after all. I am putting together a Yuletide newsletter for Temple Free Spirit; reading the contributions and writing my own article (about the history of gift giving) are definitely putting me in the holiday spirit.

Now we just need some snow!

What else… Not to much else that I am willing to publicly talk about it going on other then the usual baby ramblings. I hardly had any morning sickness today. Yay! I am tired a lot. Not so yay! And I am prone to random spells of bubbly excitement interspersed with tears. I also have this nagging feeling that my uterus is slowly but surely absorbing my brain…

Anyhow, back to candles. I am designing some holiday sets, I hope they look as lovely in wax as they do in my head.

    :) Sounds like fun! they’ve started playing Christmas music here, (it’s after thanksgiving here anyway so. :P ) But it drives me up the wall! After last year of a solid MONTH of nothing but Christmas on the radio… I’m kinda good for the next few years.

    I’ve always liked blues, silver and blues. Maybe a little green and red with it. :)

    I don’t know why you’re in a festive mood already but it must be
    contagious. I actually posted about xmas music yesterday and already
    have 2/3rds of my gifts ordered - some through you :) - and I honestly
    can’t recall the last time I bought a gift not just before Thanksgiving but
    before December! Maybe it’s just been such an eventful year that we’re
    all looking forward to the one season when we can sorta revel in our
    own lives and be happy about it. Oh, and I vote for reds and greens.
