coming out of the holiday coma







Tomorrow I will unpack bags, trek to the grocery store, and begin the long process of packing away Christmas decorations in preparation for a new year. It's always a little bittersweet...a mix of sadness over leaving family and friends states away and excitement for what all the coming year may hold. There's also so much to do when we return from our holiday travels that it always feels a little overwhelming. (Not so awesome example: our deep freezer died while we were gone. hello garage full of rotting food. yikes.) Tonight though...tonight I'll have a glass of wine, burn my final Christmas candle, and enjoy these last sweet holiday moments. Everything else can wait until tomorrow. (Except the rotting food. We definitely handled that first thing.)
