Depressing



This weekend, it all gets packed away. Finally.




Of course, it has to come down first:


the black curtains throughout the house,  the creepy cloth, the (previously) bloody shower curtain,



the foam pumpkins,



the various and sundry items that have become so much a part of the decor, I almost don't see them anymore.






Most of it has been residing in various piles in the garage, waiting for a relatively warm, uncommitted offday to sort it out and pack it away.... somewhere. 





I seem to have acquired more than I thought.  For the first time, some of the garden/outdoor items are going into the crawl space.




Hmmm.  Maybe it'd be easier just to set things up down there next year.
