Thank you, jaycee. I actually do start taking everything down the day after Christmas. Usually I’m tired of all the glitz and lights and ‘stuff’ all over the house by then. I also wish that I had a huge closet with double doors 8 ft tall right off the living room and could just ‘roll’ the tree into the closet, fully decorated though!
You probably are a “high energy person”. I used to be but my motor has slowed down a bit. However, my party turned out great, the food was delicious, everyone had so much fun. We laughed a lot and told tales. I don’t even think that anyone has to take back a gift! Another miracle!
We had the newlyweds here with us. They just returned from their honeymoon on Saturday and Christmas was Tuesday. They had to take their honeymoon later because my granddaughter had her finals the Monday before they left. They were married on Dec. 1 and couldn’t go on the honeymoon until the 15th. It didn’t matter as they had their little house ready to move into...they did spend one night in a hotel!
