Taking down the tree

I took all the ornaments off the tree today and wraped them nice and put them all away for another year. Now we have to figure out how to fit the tree in the basement since it says not to put it back in the box it came in. They gave us a cover for it but it has to be taken apart to fit it all in. I was hoping it could be stored standing up down there and just covered so the cat doesn't play in it all year long. LOL I think I will have to go down and figure out a plan as my husband has no clue as to what to do with it.... He said we just might as well leave it up in the living room all year..... not!   I think I can figure it out but will let you know, haha. We just have too much stuff and now is a good time to send it on its way I guess. Good project for winter.

I decided now was also a good time to finish an afgan I was making for my grandson who got engaged last winter.... wonder if he will ever actually get married though. Maybe he is just waiting for me to finish making the afgan, hehe  So I will get busy and finish it and then wait and see. It will be nice to have a project finished before I start something new. I did about 10 rows tonight but Charlie wants to bite the yarn and sit on my lap and that slows me down because then Twinkie also wants to sit by me.... Peaches was in Garys room laying on the bed and watching tv with Gary..... We are all so much more active in the summer, but then I guess everyone is.
