We went to street parade today to welcome Santa so it starts this arvo. Need it all ready to light up for dec 1! Takes a few weeks to put it all here...
it appears I lied - having a little girl instead of a toddler means it doesn't take anywhere nears as long! pretty much everything BUT the tree (and lights) is up now - seven 150L tubs emptied. need to run power cords, lights, set up tree and decorate, plus put the lights up outside - that stuff will be up probably next weekend but won't be lit up for more than a couple of minutes to test the lights until Dec 1. i want to run the lights around the bar after dinner so we can work out how many more we want to add - we've rearranged the furniture in there, and DH has let me take over a lot more space (there are only a few things that aren't in the bar or hallway outside bar - tree will go in there) so i need to make sure it's all lit up and looking awesome!
