DECEMBER 14

December 14th 2017

What a day!

Thursdays are always 

A blurrrrrr.

Donuts with Dad,

And then off to pick up

The repaired jewellery.

Off to get gas,

Get groceries,

stop at the gluten free store

And do the banking.

Home I made supper,

Cleaned the kitchen,

Did some laundry,

And wrapped some gifts.

I spent a couple hours

Fixing jewellery...

Fixing all my jewellery

And cleaning up 

My jewellery armoire.

I am actually too tired

To get up and go upstairs!

Christmas Tree Skirts

Christmas tree skirts are a very popluar holiday decorating item here in America. The history of the tree skirt didn't start here in America though. It's not totally confirmed but most believe that the tradition of the tree skirt began in Germany! The Germans were the first people to begin decorating the Christmas tree. They started out by attaching bows to the tree. Then they attached lit candles to the bows. The problem of melting wax arose and to catch the wax from collecting on the floor they created the Christmas tree skirt. Thus the tradition was born.

Good night from John Street
