Day 314: the shipping news

One side effect of celebrating Christmas at home this year is the fact that all the gift-giving with Katie’s family has happened remotely.

As a consequence, I expect to get a lot of packages over the next two days. I’m currently tracking about 5 different gifts simultaneously, all of which are traveling from opposite coasts to Portland and DC via two day air. So I can certainly imagine that we’ll be receiving an equal number of packages ourselves.

On the flip side, I wonder if it’s a good time to be a delivery person (you’re delivering gifts!) or a bad time (your delivery truck is really heavy on the 24th!). And I’m sure some of those things are really heavy.

Day 298: christmas bound!

Today, Katie and I had our second annual Christmas tree cutting. Last year, we went down to Los Gatos to cut one down. This year, we went up to Petaluma.

Also, another incidental tradition that’s started is getting rained on on the day we get the tree. Last year, it was lightly raining the entire time, and today, it started pouring right before we got home.

Regardless, we got the tree into our tree holder quickly and it is now sitting in the corner of our living room. Christmas is coming, and we’ve started our celebration!

I even got up onto the roof last weekend and put up our LED icicle lights!
