The Tree Is Up

I read that November is the new December and the person who tweeted that is referring to early decorating for Christmas. Well, here in the Philippines we decorate our homes at the start of September and we had been doing that for as long as I can remember. I do not start on September though because I had to wait until All Saints Day is over. So, come November 2 I will start cleaning and preparing the house for Christmas decorating. Here on my photo is the tree with the lights on. This year we got less decors because I find it challenging to pack and store after the season is over. I love to decorate and make the space look and feel festive and inviting but I really do not like storing everything after. Less decors means less to keep and less stress for me.

Took me half the day to finish everything that includes cleaning the areas and rearranging the furniture. It was easy and fast for the decors because I decided to put less. The tree alone takes time to put up and glam up. Now after everything is done, I had this instant coffee called YeYe. It was from Singapore. I love the creamy taste perfect to end my day after cleaning and decorating.

Thanks.
