castironThe presents are all here and wrapped. (Except for one gift for younger child that UPS sent in the wrong direction and that won't arrive until the 28th, and one gift for older child that isn't finished. But you know what? The beauty of Christmas with a toddler and an autistic older child is that they don't care; neither has any existing opinion on What They Should Get For Christmas. This is probably the last year of that, and I'm thoroughly enjoying it.)
We have lots of tasty veggies from the farmer's market (including the Romano Cauliflower, a.k.a. Creature From The Deep Seas), and a chicken to roast.
I found where the stocking were buried, so they're ready to hang on the doorknobs.
We never bothered to take the tree down last year (it's a small artificial tree that hangs upside-down from a board sticking out from the bookshelf; it keeps the tree out of the reach of small children, but has the side effect of not being in the way and therefore giving us no incentive to take it down). It's got a handful of expendable decorations now. (My main decorations are staying boxed up for the next 7-10 years, until older child is out of the house or outgrows the tendency to tear apart random objects.)
I finished my Yuletide fic on time. I got inspired by one prompt for Yuletide Madness; that's up too.
Happy holidays to all Christmas celebrators/Solstice celebrators/Boxing Day celebrators/Kwanzaa celebrators/observers of the Gregorian calendar!
