It's Coming Down Today

And I'm not talking about rain.

I'm talking about this:


Half way through this process.  There is something sad about taking down the tree.  Doesn't take as long to take down as it does to put up, but it's not as much fun either.  However, two members of our family of three will not be mourning the absence of this disruption to their tidy lives, though Butch isn't looking forward to his climb into the attic.  Beau is happily sleeping the afternoon away under his favorite end table where he is safe from being stepped on.

Still need to get those precious ornaments wrapped and put safely in the plastic tub you see in the background.  That's the easy part.

The poinsettias I planted just after Thanksgiving are thriving so I'll have them to remind me of what a nice Christmas it was.  And one that welcomes visitors as they come up our walkway.


Mr. Garden Gnome and his poinsettia will have to be moved backward a little because the Fragrant Plum rose is getting ready to take off.  I love new rose foliage.  The colors are so lovely.

Need to get back to work.  Break time is over.
