It's begging to look a lot like Christmas, minus the snow!

 Here we are Dec 9th and no snow on the ground and its going to be in the 40's again for the 3rd day in a row! 

I finished decorating for Christmas. I was going to put up all the lights and decorations I had accumulated over the years, but there are still a lot I didn't use. It's just too much to put up! 

Here's one of the 6 trees of various sizes we have up around the house. The main tree in the front window. 

Someday I'll replace that corner chair with a nicer one with a small round table next to it. I keep looking!! 

It's the little things that make a huge difference sometimes! One of my clients gave me a great idea to switch out the back mud room light to a light on / off sensor. No more turning on and off the light! It was a somewhat easy install and now when we go into the mud room it lights up! We should have done this years ago! A $35 dollar quick fix! It would make a nice gift to do that in some rooms for his parents. Maybe a light sensor for their garage too. 

I now want to change out some cabinets and drawers to soft close hinges. They are about $5 to $8 per hinge and we pretty much need one per cabinet/drawer. This will be on the todo after the holidays or maybe this week? A gift to me and Steve! Again a little thing that doesn't cost a whole lot, but makes a lot of difference in every day convince/ life! 

Logan comes home from college on Saturday for Winter break! End of semester and then will go back to school mid January. A nice long 5+ week break at home! Only one semester to go and he will graduate in the spring!!
