Ups and Downs

We took down our Christmas Decorations today. I hate this "day" because it makes my home ... well, boring, again. But honestly, I hate putting UP the decorations in the first place because I know this day will eventually come.

I'm in a "Bunko" group ... its a group of 12 women who get together once a month to play "Bunko" and eat. Anyway, each month, a different member hosts the party, and this month is my turn. I wish that I could get away with having my Christmas decorations up until about the 3rd week of January so that my house won't look so boring when they all come. Ah well... what can I do, right?
