quiet, quiet winter

Today we took down the Christmas Village, a good job done, packed it all in the boxes and stored it. Then we took all the little candles nightlights out of all the windows.  I usually leave those two things up long after the Christmas tree is taken down, and now it's time to put those to rest too.

January is so dark and cold, and this winter has been very cold--more severe cold this winter than there's been for years.

But the living room has been restored to its normal boring-ness, and a bunch of bored kids helped do it.

Here are a couple of them, still yukking it up, playing video games.   She finally sleeps in her own bed, and Tim is so happy because she kicks like a crazy mule all night long.  We knew she'd sleep in her own bed eventually.
 
In other news, I think a real estate listing of mine may well have a buyer, and I'm sooo happy about that.
 
We'll see how the week plays out. This seems to be a good one.  love forever, Val
