Yours has a darker finish on it which I like much better. Where did you get yours?

It is a soul cleansing endevour and while it takes some determination IT IS NOT HARD.life, in small chunkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02406557354681766742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8253477535361490765.post-16611963453510375892010-12-25T07:29:25.520-05:002010-12-25T07:29:25.520-05:00You were the first person to notice that I had the...You were the first person to notice that I had the light in the attic.

I get misty-eyed as I unwrap certain ones each year, like the little clown toy my daughter teethed on that still has her tooth marks in his hat, and the cross-stitch gingerbread man my son made in 2nd grade. <br /><br />I think the answer to the question I asked on my blog (Does everyone think their tree is "best"?) SHOULD be true, and it's sad if it's not. It's nice if everything is color coordinated and matches the living room decor, but it's not magical - which a Christmas tree surely ought to be - unless it's decorated with memories. <br /><br />As for 108 sun salutations? What?! When did you do that?!!<br /><br />xox,<br />Susansusan said sohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17427481695202748942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8253477535361490765.post-34825343525366915522010-12-23T09:31:59.108-05:002010-12-23T09:31:59.108-05:00Janet - I KNOW you could do it!

And the paperwhites make such a natural, simple and beautiful centerpiece. <br />My husband insists on getting the house decked out the day after Christmas - it's his favorite time of year so I don't mind too much if it makes him happy. But if it were up to me, I would rather not have all this stuff around for so long. <br /><br />Happy Holidays! <br /><br />AdrienneAdrienne Shubinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05826463555838820028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8253477535361490765.post-39790493189368290912010-12-22T11:44:22.756-05:002010-12-22T11:44:22.756-05:00Steve - People often say they're impressed by ...Steve - People often say they're impressed by 108 sun salutations, but if you take your time (took us almost 2 hours)it's really not hard.
