Putting Away Christmas!
Anyone else putting away your Christmas decorations today?
I took the tree down last night, tucked away all the ornaments in their hiding place for the next year and stacked in the garage.
I can't get two pieces of the tree apart - need a strong hand, so that'll have to wait until my son comes over (it's in the garage though).
Decided to rearrange the furniture and I believe it looks better than it did before Christmas.
Took off a couple hours to watch a movie since I have three more days to get this all done!
Now I have a table full of decorations to wrap and put away and all the Christmas dishes..............ugh!
Everytime I put Christmas away I have to wonder what will be going on next year when I get it all out again.

My mom is taking our baby tree down and putting that stuff away...
I admit that I am not a great one for decorating for Christmas. If it were left up to me, it just wouldn't get done.
What movie did you watch?!

Yes, my wife and I took all the decorations down last night as well. We normally wait until January 1st to take them down. But we have a really busy week next week, so decided now was good. I love Christmas and all the decorations, but it is kinda nice to get back to normal. Man, that sounds Scroogish! lol

Usually get around to it about March or April. I like to have the tree back out in the yard before the ice is off the lakes.

I am thinking it will look good as a Mardi Gras Tree, Valentine's Day Tree, Easter Tree, Mother's Day Tree, Father's Day tree, July 4th tree, and on and on ... I really don't see the need to take it down... it really fills an empty place in that corner of my living room.

Well, Renda, it appears you are the trend-setter around here. You got us all in the mood to decorate with those ornaments you hung over your counter top, and now you're making me want to dig in and get it all put away too! 
Will probably get to it tomorrow.
