This morning I finished painting

some trim on the door frames in the kitchen. I painted some of it yesterday morning before I peeled potatoes and had a shower.
Later today I was eating some leftover turkey and poured myself a little bit of wine,

felt woozy right away, so left the wine and got cracking on doing outside work.
It was about 48F, so not warm and there was more tidying to be done than I thought, or I am just moving a bit slower due to the pains (another story.) I was outside for about two hours in the coldish wind.
Anyway, I had three large plant pots and two long plant troughs to empty. Took out all the scarecrows and autumn faux flowers. The geraniums and other flowers were killed off by last weeks snow. Then I moved some garden ornaments into the garage and all the up and down to the basement.
Then I brought up from the basement all the faux flowers to fill in the plant pots.

Each one a different Christmas color theme, a few tall metal ornaments in two of the pots.
Put the wreaths on the front door and moved a solar light outside to catch more sun.
Swept up

and then set the Christmas lights on the timer to start lighting up my front porch tonight. I know it's early, but the weather is going to be colder and rainy for days, and it suited me to do these outside chores/fun things today.
I have decided that there will be no more glitter allowed into the house. It is a pain to clean up and continues to be found for months and months. It was only on a few pinecones and red bows, but even a little bit of glitter is too much glitter!
I came in, washed dishes, sliced a portion of corn bread which I buttered and put to brown and warm on the griddle. Along with a cup of tea I am pacing myself for chores and decorating to do this week.
