No more Christmas Tree

Today we took down the Christmas Tree from the living room. It's a little more work than it looks like, Christmassing and un-Christmassing a house. Sort of a lot of build up to one day which seems to flitter by pretty quickly. Probably why I like after Christmas so much more than Christmas. That little gap between Christmas and New Years is probably the best part of the whole Holiday season.

That said, I've always been a big fan of January. I don't really know why. I find find myself happy at this time of year. Probably because of the whole year of possibility that there is. January I ride on a high of good feelings and good moods, until Febrary comes and ruins everything! Seriously, we had to make a fake holiday just to make that month tolerable.

But still, it's hard. And people get tired while doing it. Which is why I'm glad it's done now. Even though there's a gaping hole like a pulled tooth in the front of the house. Takes a while to get used to not having it there once it's gone.

But now that it's gone, how am I going to get my easy to make bokeh pictures? How am I going to easily get those awesome little colourful balls of light from the safety of inside the house?
