Me + a Plan = ?? What Language Are You Speaking?
Not too long after we returned from Tahoe I took all of the ornaments off of the tree and put them in their boxes. I got stuck there, though. I haven't been very motivated to get them put all the way away (in the closet upstairs), and all of our nativities are still out, along with a handful of Christmas-y decorations that I have (there really aren't that many). I was messing around with our new camera the other night and took this picture of our family room. Aren't the books funny? They crack me up. I kind of like them up there, maybe with some tweaks. (For example, the ones that are leaning on top of the ones that are going straight across? Probably get rid of those.) Most of them Mike plans on taking to the office. Our tree looks so sad. It's beyond droopy. It had been a long time since it had been watered when we returned, and getting the ornaments off was like tearing precious possessions from angry, twisted claws. The lights will have to come off outside, because they will surely create a blizzard of needles. We'll get it all the way down soon.
In the meantime I have decided tonight that tomorrow will be a Very Busy Day. I have got to get some things straightened up around here. I can take it no longer. Laundry will get done. Rugs will get vacuumed. Tables will get cleared.
Now I said it, I have to do it.
Keep me accountable.

putting them up is so fun. taking them down is such a drag! i hope you have a productive day.
I so hate undecorating for Christmas. It's kinda sad when it's all over and we have to get back to our normal, un-Christmasy lives. I know you can get your to-do list done. I'll be asking you about it tomorrow. ;)
Did you get er done??
Ps-- all of us brunettes have the stache ;)
