The tree and all the other decorations came down and were packed away this morning, and the old decor was unpacked and put back where it belongs (or as best I can remember). I'm a little concerned, though. I wrapped up my shell wreath - and then lost it! I keep it in the basement because I'm worried the extreme temps in the attic will make it fall apart, but I'm beginning to think I accidentally put it in one of the boxes we put in the attic! I hate to make dh have to go back up and search through the boxes, but I'll be so upset if the heat and cold ruin it.  I wish I'd find it!


I talked to my sister. In addition to it being New Year's Day, it was Mom's birthday - the first one without her - and we both felt a little sad about that. I just keep telling myself she's with Dad now and probably is having a much nicer birthday than she'd had the past several years in the nursing home.


We're having company tomorrow, although I still don't know how many will be here. Anywhere from one brother to 3 brothers and a wife. So I stripped the spare room bed and threw the sheets in the washer. In among all that, I did a little leader stuff on my board, weeded out some old papers here in the computer room that I don't need to hang onto, made us a lunch, and ate it.


I still need to go to the grocery store for a few things, and remake the spare bed. Probably by the time I get those things done, it'll be time to fix dinner!


Well, at least it makes the day go quickly!

The wreath was in the attic. Somehow it got put into a box with the lights. And my dh went up and looked without even being asked!
