I Can't Believe I'm Telling You This!

I took Christmas down today!  After the holidays, I was never in the right frame of mind to take Christmas down.  I was afraid I was not going to be careful enough with my beautiful ornaments.  So I put it off until this morning.  I didn't plan to take it down but I started off with the shatter-proof ornaments and kept going.  Geez, Spring will happen in 5 days!  So glad Christmas is over in my house!

Greeneyes, if it didn't bother you not taking it down as you were taking your time to pack things the right way. That is a good thing.

You shouldn't ever worry about sharing.

My girlfriend and I are huge Halloween and Christmas fans, so our place is always packed with decorations for both holidays lol. Don’t feel bad about it, I swear those decorations help me feel better some days.

Thanks guys! You are all so non-judgmental! Arfie, I have a few stragglers too! Carly, thanks! That makes me feel better! Eminem, I don't have a lot of decorations in my house. I've been here for 18.5 years and have hardly bought anything for my house in the way of decorations because my house has always been messy so I don't allow myself to buy anything to just lay around and collect dust. Mel, I have done that before! Serenity, most people probably do put their decorations away in a timely fashion. I don't take after my parents! Their house was always immaculate. Everybody have a good Sunday!
