Christmas Debriefing, Part 6

Christmas is now long over.  We took down the ornaments on January 9.  We took the tree outside on the night of January 10.  And Waste Management took the tree off to be wood-chipped or composted before dawn on January 11.

WHAT A MESS!

The tree was beautiful up until the end.  Unfortunately, the amazing pine smell had given way to sort of a musty, damp odor.  And the pine needles had begun to fall all around the tree.

Getting the tree out of our old bungalow dislodged thousands more pine needles.  They now cover the floor of our front room (hopefully by the time you read this I will have been inspired to break out the vacuum and deal with the mess).
