I'm DONE!!

It's all packed up! Finally!!

Do you realize what I'm so thrilled about??

CHRISTMAS!!

What? Do you mean to tell me that to most people it's already a distant memory??

Truly you jest!

I know most people wouldn't be this excited but it seems like Christmas hung around here far longer than I was okay with. I was over it before New Year's this year. But things were going on & I didn't have time to get to it. And then all those boxes upon boxes of stuff!! Don't even ask me about all the ba-jillion of ornaments that need to be packed up in their little tiny boxes....can you say time consuming??

This doesn't even cover how boxes there are. I can easily fill 5 trees with all the ornaments we have. I just rotate them from year to year. OK it might be an addiction!!

But now, NOW it's GONE!

The house needs a good deep cleaning from top to bottom, which doesn't thrill me but then I can relax (not really). Possibly get on some sort of schedule of doing things around here so it's not all last minute.....***coughcoughIprocrastinatetoomuchcoughcough***ahem.

Now I can get ready for Valentine's Day......LOL!!!

There is nothing I loathe more than putting those Hallmark ornaments back in their boxes!! I got all the stuff put away last weekend but yesterday the hubby finally got the tree back where it belongs. Now the house looks empty - and I don't mind at all. Congrats Sara!

i NEVER put ornaments back in their little boxes. i don't even wrap them in tissue or anything protective. i have a few sterilite containers, and i literally just lay them all in there, very carefully. if you nestle them all together carefully, they don't have much room to budge. than i stick those containers in a box. been doing it for 9 years, and nothing has ever broke.
