My DH HATES to take the tree down (also hates to put it up) and procrastinates. I've been laid up with an ankle injury and can't do it myself. Also, our son got engaged over the holidays and the wedding will take place this summer. So I have to pack up his ornaments separately and it's a bit bittersweet to realize they won't be on our tree again, so I've not pushed to get it done. But it all comes down this weekend no matter what!

All the decorations and lights are off, and so is the top part, but haven't gotten around to getting the rest down. Arthritis is really bad right now, so I can do only so much a day. Since I work full time with some heavy lifting involved, I try to conserve energy. Hopefully will get rest down tomorrow.

I hate to make this confession, but one year our tree stayed up well into February! Don't rememer why it took us so long to take it down. Maybe because I find it so depressing? Not to mention a major pain in the ---!!
