It's that time of year again

Everyone knows it's Christmas time but I'm talking about the freezing my butt off time of year. Some days aren't so bad but then others are really bad. My kids have to go to school,thank goodness none have been real sick. A cough or a running nose is it so far.
The thermometer reads 42 degrees here in the kitchen. And that is with the top oven on. I'm working on my Christmas goodies already. Last week i made a batch of peanut brittle. Today I'm baking coconut macaroons.
Last night Mike got the outside decorations up and working. This year i decided to make a large wreath to go on the front of the house. It looks beautiful. We also got 1 of the 2 trees up. I think we will just stick to that this year.
The construction work always slows down this time of year. We are still working, Mike has been working on the complete rewire and last week i painted 2 walls in the grandma suite but decided it needs primed first. Tomorrow and Wednesday of this week are supposed to be 65 and 70 so i may kick out the grandma room so i can move in furniture and check it off the list.

I will get pictures of the outside of the house later when they are lite. I'm back to baking and laundry.
