Post Christmas Clean Sweep
|
Today is that most dreaded of days. The day I take down the Christmas decorations and pack them away for the year. It's always a bit depressing...UN-decorating. Like saying "fun's over! Back to work." Although, in a way, I've come to enjoy it for what it is. As the tree comes down, my living room seems to grow again and magically de-clutter. It also inspires in me a great desire to ORGANIZE. I spent most of this post-Christmas week lolling about in my pjs until 2 p.m., tidying up, putting Christmas detritus away and thoroughly cleaning the closet. I have half a truckload of stuff to take out of here to Goodwill or the Community House. It's very satisfying. I always wonder how I manage to ACCUMULATE so many unnecessary things...right up until my family starts opening Christmas presents.  Christmas was lovely...busy and messy...but lovely. I plan to post a Christmas slideshow like the absolutely beautiful one that my friend kampsplete added to her blog. But since my aunt took most of the pictures, I will have to wait until I get a CD of them. So more on our Christmas fun later. So...I will endeavour to increase the frequency of my postings, now that the holiday season is moving into the distance. For now, I wish you all a very Happy New Year! |
