Update
Finally, I am getting my few special Christmas ornaments in place.
They have been down from their perch since last Monday,
when GH#2 came by to help me. I just today got busy.
During the young WonderWoman years &
33 years of married life, the holiday decor was in full tilt.
Big tree, lights, too many ornaments ... excess.
Later, I handed down all the good stuff to WW & family.
Now it's ...
My precious little tree. Perfect. I heard a personality saying
you could tell so much about a person by the tree selection.
I thought about mine, yes, perfect! A one of a kind.
Bought at an art fair years ago, it's just under 12 inches.
Minimal is an overstatement?
My 4" Japanese Santa from high school best friend
Karen Hirota Tamura, almost 60+ years ago.
The ancient door decor with rusty bells and an angel of me.
Christmas cactus in full bloom at the front door.
My Grandma's 4" high nativity, 100+ years old.
My 1" high wooden Christmas train a gift from Colin Morris,
over 30 years ago.
An antique steel car ornament by artist Sherry Goodloe, 2014.
A 28" primitive canvas angel, that watches over the studio year-round.
I am just beginning to work on wrapping a few gifts.
TMI?
The kicker is ...
I love my smaller take on the season.
It takes an hour to put up or take-down.
What do you think?
Are you ready for a Merry Christmas?
Throwback Thursday ...
Young WonderWoman and her big sister, Lisa Suzuki, 1980.

Smiles for Thursday ...
Thanks for visiting today.

Olivia is almost an animation figure. Haunting in a good way! :-)
Thanks, John. I was please with how she turned out.
She is a combination of photo, collage, and drawing with my mouse.
Oh, I love to see all your precious Christmas ornaments and all the other Christmas things. Each of them can tell a story and only you and maybe a few other persons know it. That makes them so special.
I also have collected such things over years - actually decades! - now and think back to happy times when I see them again. Such lovely and precious memories.
Have a good Friday
Thank you Elenor, yes, the memories that go with our items make them precious. I mailed a Christmas card to you a few days ago, maybe it will make it in time?
