Pastels

These pastel bulbs and sparkling hearts and stars in this champagney shade of pink, are not my style.  Neither is shiny garland to match.  But I like them. 

Searched for larger plain pastel bulbs, so far have found none.  Metallic and brights, fancy shapes, patterns, nothing simple and pale.  I may not even decorate a small tree with these, not really into it again this year.  But if I didn't get them, I would regret it.  The sparkle on the hearts and stars is beautiful.

What's next in stitching?  Not sure.  Two docs today, therapy tomorrow, CT scan wednesday.  Hope to dust, sweep, finish decorating Thursday.  I use live outside, just stuffed into tubs and such, most are still in the garage.  Way too cold for any outside adventures.  As for my extremely painful mouth, several more weeks of lidocaine on my tongue injury before acceptable healing.

I was asked if anyone would be interested in selling their Goode Huswife's Pennsylvania Christmas chart.  Anyone?  She was outbid but oh so close!

If you have a Medicare advantage plan and missed the deadline to change, another enrollment for advantage plans only runs from 1/1/26 to 3/31/26.

Hope your week is swell.

Well, I missed the deadline for changing plans and I'm sure I will rue that the entire new insurance year but, very recent changes in health issues and medications made decisions regarding changes impossible. I'm still not certain whether I'll be kept on the same infusions or what will the course of treatment will be for the occlusion issues... I'm on so many stupid meds it is like trying to juggle a herd of balls figuring out what plan covers what and which plan will be best. Why did all these changes have to be thrown at me a month before the deadline?? Speaking of deadlines...I missed the outdoor decorating cutoff here too. I managed to have some things put out but the snow is now too deep for me to get at areas where I put other things and the tundra is far too frozen to stick anything in it.

I am not retired as of yet, but will need to decide a new plan come February. Not looking forward to it. I myself am not a champagne or pink kind of gal, but lately have been drawn to a few of these colors myself, but not for Christmas, but for Valentine's Day. Good luck with the pattern. I do not have it either. Janice

I hope you can find that chart, Marly! I wish they would reprint some of these older classics. Hope all the doctor's visits go well. I was called back for a second look mammogram for next week--really not looking forward to it :(

Love the soft color tone of the pink,but it's a no go for me for Christmas-- there will be always the traditionel colors....red green,white and gold.
Only the lights are in the windows and the wreath on the frontdoor. Don't know if I will be doing more.
Good luck with the app's and hope all goes well.
Take care, Truus from Holland
