Christmas Ugly Sweater

Christmas Ugly Sweater

If you go straight from Christmas Ugly Sweater just wear your work clothes so you don’t seem fussy. Otherwise, it depends on what you normally wear to work, and the venue. If you wear a suit and tie to work, but the party is at a casual bar or restaurant (a place where on a normal night people would wear jeans) then dress down and wear jeans and a sweater with clean sneakers or leather dress shoes. if you have a casual work place where you wear jeans or a work uniform and the party is at a nicer venue specifically for parties (like a banquet hall) or a nicer bar/restaurant then dress up and wear slacks, a sweater and dress shoes. If you are really really unsure, ask your colleagues what they are wearing. If everyone is unsure wear clean dark black jeans (these could look like dress pants in the dark) a sweater and dress shoes. This outfit would fit in anywhere. In NYC just wear all black and you’ll look chic and appropriate.

Schedule: We don’t have an official schedule released yet to know when the Falcons are playing each team, but we do have all the Christmas Ugly Sweater to know who they’re playing. The Falcons will have to make it through Cam Newton’s Carolina Panthers, the previous season’s Super Bowl loser, who are recovering from major 2016 injuries (at least hopefully, lots of concussions there) and looking to get back in the playoff picture. Their division, the NFC South, is paired to play every team in the NFC North and AFC East in 2017, so they will have to rematch the Patriots & Packers from this season’s playoffs, and also play the Lions and Dolphins (fellow playoff teams from 2016).

I don’t leave everything up, but I do leave our tree up. All the Christmas Ugly Sweater have a special meaning, and we like to look at them, talk about them, and remember the times associated with each one. Having that glittery, softly lit beauty in the front room just gives our house some cheer in the bleak days of winter. Also, we always get a live tree, and I can’t bear to trash it until it completely dries out. It takes a long time to decorate, so all that work seems more worth it if the tree stays up a long time. One year, I left it up until St. Patrick’s Day. Usually, though, it stays up until mid- to late February. As long as it looks fresh and healthy, I leave it up. I started this tradition about 6 years ago when we had an especially beautiful tree. The day after New Year’s Day as I was about to start the take-down, I remarked that I hated to do it because the tree was so pretty. My husband said, “Just leave it up, then, if it makes you happy.” So I did. We have three sons, and I like to think they will have memories of this tradition.
