The Recovery

I have spent the majority of today cleaning the house and
putting away the Christmas decorations.

It is always amazing how fast the time goes between
Halloween and New Years.

This year I just blinked and it was gone.

I love putting up all of the decorations for the holidays, especially Christmas,
but there is something so refreshing about boxing them all back up again.

Isabelle was practically in tears as I dismantled the trees.

Although the house seems to feel a little empty now,
it also feels like a clean slate.

Yesterday I spent the day cleaning and organizing the school/play room.

Well one thing leads to another and cleaning that one room
required me to also clean out 3 closets.

I was going to wait until January to start getting the house organized,
 but I already have a big headstart.

Its not the most exciting post I know, but it has taken up two days
of my life so it deserves a paragraph!

I am so very tired.  It's time to hit the hay!
