Well, when we were tiny kids my friend was astounded by my home because it was my Mom who was the original Mrs. Christmas. So then as adults my friend was inspired and adopted my Mom's over-the-top Christmas spirit, while I am more Xmas Zen. But it makes me sad that my friend isn't decorating. How can she not even open one box when she has over 40? She's depressed. Well, I'm depressed, too, but that's okay. I have PC. And my friend has her adorable dog. We will survive.
