But I have to admit, our tree looks wicked with the black garland, and assorted black bulbs. Especially since instead of an Angel with have T-Rex popping out there on top (I’m going in with a “not-sacrilegious” conviction on that one). We added some boughs and pine cones to the decorations around the window, along with our light-up cross from Value Village.  My wrapping is done, and my Christmas cards are mostly in the mail. Can I take my holidays yet? Please?
