LAST as the task of undecorating is almost done. I actually enjoy this activity every year. I give it a few days and take my time.
 
Since the only Christmas decoration I put out was my creche, and my Xmas cards, they will stay a while. The gifts have moved into usefulness. Took Lucy for a walk this afternoon kitted out in my sister's rainbow cloche and beautiful red hand-knit mitts from Seeler!
 
My creche is a valued treasure in my life. Bought in my early years of marriage, the only thing I bought with my annual "Uncle JB gift" that year, it's a real barn board stable with wax figures. Above it balances a sparkly baked playdough star crafted by my daughter; to one side is a pinecone christmas tree in a tiny clay pot topped by a tiny wooden star painted yellow, my son's permanent contribution to the scene. The rest of it - tree, lights, etc., I can apparently live without. At least this year.

(Anyone else notice how the first four days are all for the birds, then suddenly we're into serious bling? ;) )
