It's turned into a family joke that no matter how hard I try to gather everything up, some item or another always slips through the cracks. This year was no exception. Earlier this week I was sitting at the kitchen table eating dinner with Hubby Tony when I happened to glance over at the windows that overlooking the deck. The window farthest to the right still had an ornament hanging from the latch.

And then this afternoon I was walking through the living room when I saw a glint of silver on the carpet. I stopped and picked up a tiny two inch piece of tree garland, which had somehow survived the weekly room vacuuming.
I wonder if I'm really done for the year now.

That has happened to me but think I got them all this year, maybe as I put less out.
ReplyDeleteEvery year I say I'm going to put fewer decorations out, but in the end I don't listen to what I said :-)
DeleteI've left an ornament on a latch from year to year, from time to time. Cute fella.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear I'm not the only one.
DeleteThat happens to me too, so I just leave whatever I missed up, until the next Christmas.
ReplyDeleteI hope to be as laid back as you some day.
DeleteIn years past, I've come across a ornament hook here or there. Haven't noticed any so far this year, so I think I'm off the hook. Get it? LOL
ReplyDeleteHA!
