getting into the spirit

IMG_3351.jpg Roses are still blooming here this weekend. I was outside in my driveway this morning when my neighbor Cindy caught me and dragged me into her back garden to exclaim over this one. Don't know the name of it but it did have a lovely citrusy fragrance.

Sorry to say I am not yet into the Christmas spirit. Still have not even started to shop for gifts. But last night I brought down the tree and the ornaments from the attic and by the end of the day we should have our decorations up. Tonight we are going to a holiday show at the symphony.

So with this big a dose by tomorrow I should be on the right track.

Glad to hear you are getting Christmasy!! Is that a David Austin Rose? Gertrude Jekyl?

Don't know Mary Lou. My neighbor could not remember and I can't really identify it.

I bet my bottom dollar you'll be full of it by tomorrow ; )

Spirit, that is.
