The Undoing

 

My back is killing me and I couldn't sleep so I got up early and undid Christmas. As long as I'm on my feet I feel fine but I can't sit or lay down without being miserable. I kept busy all morning putting everything away before The Mister got up. 



As soon as his feet hit the ground I cranked up Alexa and spent the morning doing some other standing up stuff like playing with my juggling stuff. Yes, I juggle all this stuff and I'm pretty good at it. It's a good upper body workout and I should do it more often. 




Later that afternoon when I ran out of standing up stuff to do like vacuuming the whole house I finished up mini sweater number 3. I am so glad Arne and Carlos used colors that weren't all Christmas colors. Number 4 is black and white and so I had no trouble casting it on while purging the house of every smidgen of red and green.

    I had to laugh at this post, (but not about your back pain, I promise,) because I plan to do the same tomorrow. I want to get Christmas put away and back to normal, whatever that is. I always try to have things put away before the new year arrives, but this year, I want it done NOW, for some reason. I would have done it today if Mandy and Piper hadn't been coming over for our Christmas dinner and present opening today.
    This house is starting to feel cluttered and I don't like it. I know most of it is because of the Christmas stuff so away it goes!
    I love those tiny little sweaters. Someday I'm going to take the time to make some myself.
    Blessings,
    Betsy

    Wow! You've been busy. I just look around our place and wish I could clap my hands and have a house keeper arrive! I didn't remember that you juggle - how cool!

    I saw a discarded Christmas tree on my walk with Hamlet today, so apparently someone else was thinking like you.

    Hope your back feels lots better today! You juggle? That's amazing! Those little sweaters are so cute, and you're right, a great way to use up bits of leftover yarn Happy New Year!

    Juggling! That's awesome! I'm so uncoordinated all I would do is hit myself in the head with all that!

    I'm loving your little jumpers, I may have to have a go at them. I've just finished putting away all our campervan stuff after having three nights away. I'm always amazed how much washing I bring back with us.
