Christmas Decorations

[catnapper]

I am actually taking them down right now. I'm taking a break. The tree is down and packed away, so are all the little nick-knacks. I just have to do some little organizing and then a mad cleaning and furniture re-arranging. Thank God this yrear I didn't have to lug all the boxes to the basement myself!

Personally, I loved having the decorations up, but I put them up right after Thanksgiving and I'm eager to have my clean spacious livingroom back. Already it look ten times bigger without a huge tree sitting in the middle of it!

This year they came down the day after boxing day,because a little someone kept climbing the tree. Usually we wait until New Years day to take everything down.

In our community there is a rule about how long outside lights can be lit. There are fines for lights left on too long. We turn everything on the day after Thanksgiving so I am ready but New Year's to turn everything off.

We also have to have our lights down by the 9th because of our association...I am tired of all of it by now though anyway....glad to have some space back.
