My friend, Rebecca, is doing a some-odd annual December Photo Project where you show the “world” what you’re looking at for the first 25 days of December. Ta-da!

This is what my living room looked liked this morning when I woke up.

We got in late from a nice, long visit to St. Louis for Thanksgiving, and this is the thanks I got. 

I spent the day cleaning and unpacking and doing dishes and putting away laundry and stripping the last bit of wallpaper off the third wall so we could decorate as a family tonight.

I can hardly keep my eyes open.
