My Christmas stuff has been put away

Finally, I got up the energy and drive to take down every stitch of Christmas decoration or adornment.

I must admit, the date of May 16, 2010 was not the driving force.

Still grappling with many things since the death of my Mother, I've been unable to perform many tasks.

I thank Facebook for this nudging.

Due to Facebook, I was able to reconnect with many friends from my past.

With the hopes that all of us may get together, and possibly gather at my home, I stayed up all night over the weekend --quite a project undertaking which consisted of about 18 hours-- in order to take everything down, assess, pack away and then clean up afterward.

What a liberating feeling to get my living room back, and though just a very small piece, a piece none-the-less of my life back.


I am hoping these re-connections will continue giving me bigger puzzle pieces of my life back. I know that's what Mom would want.
