Hi All,
Well, we finally got all of our holiday decorations down. Last week we took down the outdoor lights. Astrid decided to help. When she saw me pulling the string of lights off the bushes, she grabbed hold of one end in her mouth and pulled. Being a German Shepherd, that light string didn't stand a chance. Looks like I'll have to buy new lights for those bushes for next year.
Almost all of the neighbors on our block had lights and decorations up for the holidays and it was quite cheerful, so it's a bit depressing now that the neighborhood is cold and dark. I feel like we should keep at least some lights up until the end of February so that there's something cheery to look at during these dark months.
We also took our tree down on Sunday. Our cat decided to help with that. More than one ornament was batted around the living room and when the garland from the stair railing went into its box, she decided it made a wonderful bed.
And then there was the adventure of cleaning up all the pine needles. The dog barks at the broom while the cat chases it. They do keep things interesting. But currently, Astrid is asleep at my feet while Darcy (the cat) is curled up on my daughter's lap, so all is finally cozy and quiet here.
How was your weekend? Are your decorations down? And what does the week ahead look like where you are? Check in and let us know.
