Good-bye Christmas

I love Christmas!  I keep my tree and decorations up as long as possible, sometimes past New Year’s Day.  I hate saying good-bye and packing everything into a box till next Christmas.  This year I finally finished up, and I discovered something new— don’t pull everything down one day and leave it to put away later.  It’s like putting Christmas away twice.  YUCK!!!  Maybe next year, I’ll put one decoration away a day.  I wonder how long I can keep Christmas going?  No matter how I say goodbye to Christmas, there is a silver lining.  Next year I open the box and say hello to Christmas again.  It’s only 350 days away!
