He just loved it, and since he was home much more than I was and did nearly all the cleaning, I didn't have anything against it. But ever since it has just been me on my own, I've very much reduced decoration. I still insist on the things I've known since earliest childhood, though; such as an Advent calendar and a wreath.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-24363269717185807092014-12-07T10:13:02.942+01:002014-12-07T10:13:02.942+01:00I have never been one for Christmas decorations an...I have never been one for Christmas decorations and this year I have given the last two boxes away to a friend who is a great lover of her decorations and Christmas tree.
