I'm the Queen of deNial Weekly Link Round-Up

What am I in denial about this week? The fact that I should be moving all my Christmas decorations from the storage unit to the house, that's what! Right now decorating for the holidays is one of the last things I want to do, and if that feeling continues, it will be Christmas Lite here at Casa Kittling. We shall see. 

Other than that, it's been a week of doctor appointments, haircuts, grocery shopping, and a mammogram. (Ladies... have you had yours this year???)
