Before midnight on Wednesday we must say goodbye to:
The Tree, Jolly Santa Angel and much more
leaving everywhere looking bare, wrap and pack them them all up into the loft,hoping I haven’t missed one somewhere like I usually do!
Is it just me or do the decorations seem to be back out of the loft in no time at all?!

After my mother came to stay here with me I used to leave them up for her, but they got on my nerves lol

We did most of the time except when she got stubborn lol. It was hard going on times, but it's over now and I'm glad I was able to help her when she needed it.

I wont be taking mine down until the last minute either, I hate packing them all up in tissue paper, and it looks so bare without them, I usually forget one, convinced it is bad luck too.....

Thanks Dottydaisy2 I hope not to miss one this year! They say it's bad luck but I take that with a pinch of salt and fingers crossed 'cos I'm not supersticious Lol
