Do you smell Christmas just round the corner?

My Papa is already in Christmas mood :) Today he is playing this song over and over again. This sunday is Advent* and its time to put up the christmas tree.

Our christmas tree has not seen the light of day for 2007 (in respect of mummy.. nobody wanted to celebrate last year)... But this year.. it will come out happily from the boxes again! All our Christmas decorations with the dancing Santa and the Clappy Merry Christmas.

I won't be home this Christmas again. I will be on my way to welcome the arrival of my new lil nephew :) can't wait... till i have him in my arms.. and smell the newness of him. I hope he comes on Christmas eve :) Then he will share his special day with his momma.

Hope to post some christmas pics soon as i get the tree up. But first.. spring cleaning of the house first. My mom would be furious if i don't get all that done first. Wash the curtains.. wash the cushions... sweep the dust from the ceiling... i hope i can do as much as i can before i go.

Halppppppppppppppppppppppppp... mebbe i need a robot :) wall-e? i-robot? roomba? halpppppppppp

*Advent (from the Latin word adventus, meaning "coming") is a season of the Christian church, the period of expectant waiting and preparation for the celebration of the Nativity of Jesus, in other words, the period immediately before Christmas. It is the beginning of the Western Christian year and commences on Advent Sunday.

The progression of Advent may be marked with an Advent calendar reckoning Advent to start on 1 December, a practice introduced by German Lutherans. At least in the Roman Catholic calendar, Advent starts on the 4th Sunday before December 25; in other words, the Sunday between November 27 and December 3 inclusive. (from Wikipedia)
