Positive Spin

We are at my in-laws for a couple more days. Then we have to go home and actually unpack all of our stuff. I am looking forward to it because it will be nice to have our things once more. I am dreading it because I have to actually finish cleaning up anything else I want to clean up (like wiping off shelves, etc.) so that we can find places to put all of our stuff. I have decided that I need to keep putting a positive spin on things in 2008. So for instance I am telling myself, that while I didn't get to decorate a house for Christmas (which I didn't miss that much because Dec. was so hectic anyway) that at least I don't have Christmas decorations to pack up. I didn't have time to bake any goodies but that also means I don't have stuff sitting around for me to be eating all the time.

Speaking as one who is currently finishing off cookies, I would agree that it's probably best not to have them around.

And I'm dreading taking down the tree - I guess I'm just going to have to bite the bullet and do it in stages. Oy.

Oops, I ate the last of the Christmas cookies tonight too.... I've got to get the tree to the curb this weekend for pickup (I hate old tree skeletons in the woods in our back yard -- especially since they belong to the neighbors!) So, I must get the decos down in the next few days!
