We have been in Atlanta for two days and I am so behind in my visits. Sorry this is so late. <BR/><BR/>I am looking forward to the winner of your knitted treasure.

With hubby not having to start work again until tomorrow, it's been a long Christmas, and we've been stretching out the holiday glow as long as possible--LOL! But there's always that little twinge of melancholy of another Christmas come and good. Thank goodness of the little holidays of Valentines' St. Patrick's Day, etc. to cheer things up in between the big holidays. Come to think of it I'm not sure I have much in the way of Valentine decorations...must see to that!

I do have a beautiful Nativity set with a spotlight shining on it that I will keep out for a few more days. I'm glad that you mentioned Valentine's day.

We got the tree down today, and I packed up about half the tubs. Hope you managed to finish, and have a little time to relax tomorrow before heading back to school!Debihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15429881953804634592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22010087.post-13573837236653642082009-01-03T15:06:00.000-05:002009-01-03T15:06:00.000-05:00Good luck getting all the decor down and put away....Good luck getting all the decor down and put away. I did mine on Christmas day and the day after. Hubbs took down all the lawn ornamentation and all we have left are the string of lights on the roofline. I also thought Christmas came in a rush and left just as fast! Whoosh!<BR/>I'm glad I did take down my decor when I did because I had slacked on laundry for a the week of Christmas and a few days after and then the worst happened! My dryer went out and Sears wasn't able to come out for another week! So they got here yesterday, fixed the problem (thank God for extended warranties) and I started laundry last night. I had 20 loads (not even kidding!) and I have load #9 in the washer right now. It's my whites and I'm pretty anal about whites. They got soaked over night, washed through, washed in Hot with some bleach and are now getting their 3rd wash through to take out that bleach smell, lol! I'm just glad I got the 8 loads done and put away before I started this one. I'm able to tackle some other chores. Whoo! Sorry for the novel, don't know what's come over me. Enjoy your day!!!Rechelle ~Walnuthaven Cottage~https://www.blogger.com/profile/00532760613588553175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22010087.post-20272677116126006132009-01-03T15:01:00.000-05:002009-01-03T15:01:00.000-05:00I LOVE all those totes.

Since I have started blogging I can't seem to leave things in their same place....constantly re-arranging and working on "displays" that look eye pleasing to me. I need to start tackling my de-cluttering!Darlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11862436836886238624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22010087.post-81134109473187985762009-01-03T13:36:00.000-05:002009-01-03T13:36:00.000-05:00Hey Dawn,I packed away all of our Christmas things...Hey Dawn,<BR/><BR/>I packed away all of our Christmas things on New Year's Day. There's still a few things that need to go up to the attic. It's depressing! Christmas time is our favorite time of the year! It does go by too fast.

Dont forget to take a little time for yourself today and knit or read. After all, thats what vacation is all about.
