In the last few years I’ve adopted a very drawn out method for decorating the Christmas tree. In the true spirit of Two Things at Once, I hang an ornament on the tree every once in a while, usually when I’m passing by the tree on my way to do something else. It helps to break up monotonous tasks around the house and keeps me from getting bored while decorating the tree.
There’s no way you’d get away with this with kids in the house but it works for me.
