Remembrance Day / Christmas

I get that some people get offended when someone does anything about Christmas before Remembrance Day but when you have M.S., you don't always have a lot of energy. I may put my tree up before Remembrance Day and usually decorate on R.D., and I'm not going to feel bad about it. With some much happened from now till Christmas,  I take advantage of a day that I have energy to do something. The last thing I want to do is not have the energy to do it, even with the help of my family, (we decorate together) to not get it done. I want to be able to enjoy my life and not worrying about when I will have the energy to put it up. Worrying and stressing out about something does not help when you are not up to par. It actually makes it worse and harder to rest and build up some strength. Sometimes I feel lazy and I'm sure people think it. I come home from work and sit on the couch all evening crocheting. When actually I'm trying to regain some lost energy to make supper or have a shower or even go and get some groceries. So the next time someone comments on the fact my tree is up before Remembrance Day, they may get a pop in the nose and I don't feel bad. My friends get it, my family gets it. I get it. That's all that matters!   

Took an hour to just put the tree up. The decorations shouldn't take as long with the help of the boys. Love them!
