Thank you Minnie, what a lovely compliment!OMG -- that scene looks like something out of a House Beautiful magazine!! What a beautiful display! P.S.: That lace tablecloth looks antique -- has it been in the family for many years?
I love that set of vinyl clings. Picked them up many years ago while outlet shopping in Connecticut. The elf can be a little creepy, and it has happened more than once that I've come down in the middle of the night for a drink of water and been startled by the silhouette of someone peeking in my window.Beautiful table! And I love Santa in the window!
This Christmas Decorative Masterpiece of yours is amazing! It must have taken hours and hours and hours to accomplish.Since we haven’t put up all our decorations for a few years (our moms were ill for most of 2020 and both passed away in 2021, and last year we did a family trip to WDW at Christmas), we went whole hog this year.
Some of you may have noticed the tree in the corner of my dining room, here are some more of them.
The Disney Tree. It’s on a rotating stand so we had to do a double-Tink tree topper.

And to you!
Yes, I had to go back to work, but I tried not to get too close to anyone, and since I wasn't coughing or sneezing, I'm hopeful that I didn't spread it. I was still using nasal spray so I could breathe, but your sinuses get addicted to that stuff pretty quickly. You aren't supposed to use it more than a few days. I try not to use it unless I really need it. I can't sleep if I can't breathe through my nose. So I started by using it only when I went to bed, just to get me through the night. Once it wears off, my nose gets even more stuffy, so I have to use it more often, and then I use it one time before bed and then that's it, so when I get up in the morning, I get stuffy, but I can stand it when I'm awake. Eventually, throughout the day, it wears off, and then I can breathe normally again. When I went back to work, that's when I started using it during the day, too, just so I wasn't all stuffy at work and so I'd be able to get off of it. So I used it for those 2 days I worked, even though I didn't really need it, but then Friday night was the last time I took it, because I worked until 8pm. Saturday I refused to use it, and by the afternoon, I was completely symptom free. So I think I was probably symptom free on Thursday or Friday when I went back to work already, but I needed to kick the nasal spray.How are you feeling now? Did you go back to work?
I have the same issues slash immediate dependence on nasal spray, so now all I will use is FloNase.

My husband never got it, thank goodness. So now we're heading to his parents' house today.
