Well, the Christmas items are put away. Today is January 20.
Only about a month past Christmas day! I started decorating for the holidays
the day after Thanksgiving. But before I could get it done, I became sick. I
was so sick, I could not enjoy the special time of year that I enjoy so
much. Then, while I was still recuperating, I decided that maybe I'd just leave
everything up until after next Christmas, then I would not have to worry about
my sickness to interfere.
But, alas, I could not stand the clutter. Since I have felt so good the past week or so, I took advantage
of this summer-like day to organize the items so maybe it will be a quicker job
done next year. And, maybe I will do it earlier since I seem to get sick in
November. September or October would be
nice!
And, of course, I hope we can all keep the Christmas spirit in our hearts all year long.
Christmas trims are gone
Carols still sing in my heart
Hope it lasts all year
