I need to unChristmas the house. There's not a huge amount: stockings and hangers, the kids' little tree, the big Christmas tree, and the nativity set. I also want to give all the holiday things a good clearing out. I'm keeping the Christmas village, though I didn't set it up this year, but I don't really care about much else.

I have everything in its box, but damn, I'm having trouble getting those boxes back up to the attic. Been on my to-do list since Monday. And now it's almost dark again...maybe tomorrow?

I'm still working on convincing Robby we can't just leave the tree up until next Christmas, so you're miles ahead of me

Boy was I glad when Zac just out of nowhere started putting the stuff away. it was a real motivator to just do it, it took all of 10 minutes. Taking things down feels so much easier than putting it up, but actually getting to the taking stuff down part feels like a mountain of NOPE.

And meanwhile I feel like the tree is silently taunting me.

Well, now I'm imagining it whisper-singing christmas carols while you all are sleeping, and you wake up and go: "Who the Hell is singing?" lol.

This year's tree was a beast. It may have been part Triffid. I wouldn't have been surprised to wake up and see it poking its head around the doorframe.
