By this point however, Kristen had pretty much reached her limit with the sick and boring people who couldn't take her anywhere or do anything with her. Though I wasn't feeling great, I announced to her and Misha that we could start decorating for Christmas. They were both all in and helped with carrying up some of the large Christmas totes and setting up the Christmas tree. We worked on that for a couple of hours to a point where we had some decor up, the tree was somewhat decorated, the stockings were hung (with care, I might add), and they were happy.
I flopped back in bed and was happy to rest and would finish adding the lighted garland on the banisters along with other finishing touches next week.
