I'm not ready to let go yet

I can't bear the thought of saying goodbye to Christmas yet - even though half of blogland is busy taking down and putting away - I walk by my Tree and I think " Oh no, I can't throw you in the garbage, you need to stay for just a little longer....................

and how can I pack away all the glitz when I'm still in love with it all?

It can't possibly be over

When it still makes me happy to look at it

So I'm going to pretend it's still December 24th

for another week or so

until I'm ready

absolutely

positively

ready to let go

of the beautiful memories I have of this Christmas

Have any of you vanquished decorations from your home yet?
What happened to waiting until Epiphany?
I always thought that was kind of like a rule, you know, as in you can't wear white after labor day, type of thing lol?
