Mum has a favorite ceramic Christmas tree. She’s had it since the 70’s. Do you have any old favorite ornaments or decorations?
@Nammu, I always liked A Christmas Story, too, and remember it well. I mentioned that movie just the other day to my husband, and specifically the "shoot your eye out" bit. I also found the wife's hatred of the sexy "leg lamp" hilarious. I've had a thing or two of my husband's I felt similarly about. LOL!

And how coincidental! My favorite Christmas decoration is a ceramic tree that MY mother also made in a ceramics class. I think it was already in the shape, but she assembled and painted it. It was always my parrots' Christmas tree. I unpacked it a week ago. My husband ordered a new bulb for it. We have a convertor plug (from US to European). Attached is a photo I just snapped.

What do you do to keep your life feeling as "normal" as possible?
