venetia_sassyChristmas decorations taken down. *sadface* Although we haven't dismantled the Christmas tree yet, everything else is in boxes.

Getting my (upper) wisdom teeth out tomorrow. It's supposed to be a straightforward extraction, so minimal recovery time - I hope. The wisdom teeth aren't causing any problems at the moment but they're growing more sideways than down and my dentist thinks they are likely to cause problems in the future. Given all the expensive and successful treatment she's done over the last twelve months to correct my jaw alignment, TMJ syndrome and chronic tension headaches, I'm inclined to listen.
I get ice-cream, yes?

Some people start putting up Yule decorations by Lucia (13 December) but I think most wait until the day before Yule Eve. This year I tried to get most of it up before Yule Eve but didn't quite manage it so I'd to decorate my tree on Yule Eve itself. (Yule Eve is the big day here, not Yule Day. Yule Day is basically for enjoying your presents and eating leftovers :-) Also, Yule traditionally ends on 13 January.
I hope you weren't in too much pain and that you're feeling alright today.

Whereas here, the decorating usually starts much earlier (depending on one's background), Christmas Day is for celebrating, Boxing Day for relaxing, and the decorations come down earlier. So it works out at about the same amount of time and decoration.
(This question prompted by an elderly friend who was insisting that Swedes decorated early and much and I was thinking, 'Ummm ...' Different parts of Sweden, maybe?)
Vicious headache last night but surprisingly okay today!
