Ohm, yes, Christmas. Tree's up Ed finally put the garland on and put away all the crates for ornaments last night. As usual, I put on the ornaments after he put on the lights. I think it's the first Christmas I didn't hear him curse once while doing so. But, then, I put on maybe half the ornaments I usually do. Guess we're both mellowing in our respective ways.
