  • When do you do it?

    Put your Christmas tree up? (What else would it be?)

    I usually put mine up on 1st December. I have job interviews on Thursday and Friday which need quite a bit of preperation and I get terribly nervous (as regular users will know!)

    So, I'm taking a different stance regarding the interviews. I'm still going to put my tree up tomorrow (takes me ages because I have so many lights around the house and in the garden) and hope it will take my mind off the interview.

    I'm hoping that the 'I don't care if I get this job or not' tactic might pay off and I actually get offered the job!

                Two Bah Humbugs!!

                Though I do think it's the women who like the tree/decorations. My 19 year old daughter's put on fb that she's done the tree but can't get the lights as good as I do! I'm [size=5]extremely fussy about having them placed just right with no gaps and not having the same colour of bulb together! And I have 200 lights on my tree. Fibre-optic and prelighted trees just don't do it for me.

                I love watching all the kitsch movies and having Christmas music playing too. Last year was great because I was teaching an infant class so got to do lots of Christmassy things, even if all the kids were Muslims!!
