med snart 30 års sparande av äldsta sonen och mitt
tävlande i julgranspynt .... i alla fall delar av dem.
Till vardags numera samlade på vinden. Idag klär mor granen
tillsammans med husets katt, tävlar gör hon inte längre utan vill glädja
sin vuxna son med traditionen av husets julgrans utstyrsel...
....men först skall alla lösa barr ruskas av och avlägsnas.
I år valdes handmålat med gammalt filigran och antika frostade
glaskulor i en salig röra. Vissa måste träs om på snören då de torkat.
Och sen är det inget pling i kulorna, Kletus!

This year's ornaments and trims for the Christmas tree decor have
been selected from the attic's storage. For almost 28 years I've been
competing against by eldest son ( the only competition I've ever had in
my whole life whatsoever ) decorating the family Christmas tree to
look it's best ever. Every year we have been scrutinizing the market
and antiques, making our picks separately, then adding them to the
tree when the other one was out of the house.
Today my son has his own apartment and works hard with
little time for Holiday preparations. So his mum has picked
some assorted ornaments from over the years and will try to
honor him by keeping the family tradition and dress the tree
herself this year, accompanied as always by the most
expectant housecat. He's been sniffing it for a couple
of days now.
Also grown up men love a beautiful Christmas tree.
