I think I might have overdone it on Hallmark Original Movies. I was watching my 1 millionth one and hubby passed by and asked why I was so angry. Apparently I had an angry look on my face. I very well could have been pouting about the fact that in eight totes of Christmas decorations, I have nothing to decorate with, but I wasn’t really thinking about that at the time. I don’t know. Maybe some eggnog with clear my mind.
