The day after...

Really?  Has it just been one day since Christmas?  I hate that anticlimactic feeling of the day after.  It's the same with any big event, activity, project... holiday.  I look forward to them so much, even with the pressure and stress, I love the excitement of something fun that is coming.  

Then it's over. 

All that's left is to clean up.  I read this morning on someone status that their neighbor had already put the Christmas tree out on the curb for pick up.  I can understand that, especially for someone who decorated early in November.  I'd be really sick of the decoration clutter by now.  Since we aren't planning to have a New Years gathering I'll begin slowly putting things away over the next week.  It's time to move on.
