I keep thinking it might be time to get into some holiday spirit. We don’t have room in our tiny house for a tree of Xmas. We did have a moment of Hanukah one night. I have some Xmas decorations in the garage, and some holiday lights. But it’s that whole thing of, then first I’d have to clean the house. And I still need to plaster the office and finish the roof painting (hey square dancing roofer, you still have the gutters to FINISH!!!).
Tony across the street waits for me to do my lights then he does his because we have the Christmas light challenge! Although neither me nor Tony’s lights are really all that impressive but it gets both of us putting up our lights. But I need to go out and have a chat with Tony re. global warming and what we should do about that this year? And then if I actually put up the Xmas decorations (my favorite is the sparkle pine cone with 4th of july flags and tiny little presents from an estate sale in a weird 70’s house in Bernal Heights!) then there would have to be the Xmas shopping.
Which would involve selecting a gift for a husband who is a very, very, very picky person. The category of hobby, forgetta bout it. He has many bikes, of which he is very picky about each and every thing that involves bikes or bike outfit or bike accessory. The category of clothing or house, we have no more room in our house for an article of clothing or a house thing. Well, ok, unless it is a thing for Collections, of which we have deer, taxidermy, horse, forest animal, antler, small black dog, old guns made of wood, paint by number of any of the above or weird old paintings by insane people or mad aunties of any of the above, or pottery that holds plants in the shape of animals, or generic historical item that does not exactly fit any of the above. Then we have room for it. Do you see how easy it is to Xmas shop for ME, versus a picky, picky husband?
Usually he likes the gift of art. But this year I did not have time to make him a personal art. So any and all gift ideas for a picky, picky, husband are hugely appreciated. He doesn’t read my blog. It scares him. So you can comment them to me since you all seem to be very, very quiet lately of the comments.
