All Ready for Christmas

Last updated on February 2, 2012 by One Frugal Girl3 Comments

The tree is lit, the gifts are wrapped and I’m all ready for the Christmas festivities to begin. The next day or two will be a whirlwind of time spent with family, opening gifts and eating tasty food. Every other year I hold Christmas Eve dinner at my house and I have to say I’m happy that I’m not hosting this time around.

Tomorrow I plan to do absolutely nothing but read a book that’s been sitting on my nightstand for over a week. I want to sleep in late, take a long morning shower, change into comfy clothes, light a fire and snuggle onto the couch with my book and my kitty. I planned to do that today, but a few last minute coupons and gift ideas got in the way of a long, relaxing afternoon.

I need to prepare a small appetizer for tomorrow’s get together. I haven’t figured out what to make yet, but I do NOT plan on going to the grocery store in search of ingredients. If I don’t have everything I need on hand, then I’m taking a large tub of hummus and some veggies.

I’m looking forward to Christmas and to seeing all of the people I love. Now I just need to maintain these warm, happy feelings as my husband and I rush and hustle from one location to another over the next two days.
