Today is my favorite sister’s birthday! I dropped off Susie Squirrel, because it’s her turn to stay with Kathy for the next six months – until my birthday. Kathy had to work today so I didn’t get to see her, but hopefully she enjoyed her day and will be happy to have Susie back in residence. Happy birthday, sweet sister!

So after work and lunch I started putting holiday decorations away. Today is supposed to be the best day weather-wise so I took care of all the outside decorations first. I put the reindeer in the shed (I always hate to put them away!), gathered up all the other outside decorations, and changed the Christmas lights to blue/white for winter. I did leave snoopy up until the weekend. He gets put away last anyway.

No reindeer, but Snoopy and winter lights…

I took the lights and garlands down and the windows look dark and bare. It’s hard to get used to the house as things are tucked away. But once it’s all cleaned up I’ll welcome the relative plain-ness of it all. More to do tomorrow.

TOMORROW December 30th is:

I’ll go with the bacon! Then I’ll get back to tucking Christmas 2023 away! God bless…
