…under the mistletoe
In Germany it is a tradition to keep up the Christmas Tree until / or the day after Epiphany - the day of the three Magi. Epiphany is on January 6th. So… guess what happened today?
Yes! Exactly!!!
We´ve been listening 3 times to mouthwatering Robbie William´s Best Of Album. LOL
This means: It took us 3 * 78.45 minutes = 3.32 hours = 235.35 minutes = 14121 seconds
to take down all the ornaments, tree balls, lights, garlands and the two Christmas Tree Toppers.
Two? Yeah, Baby! A lucky break… We´ve bought a red Christmas Tree Topper in November. Not too intersting, I know. In oreder to tinker all those Advents Wreaths I went into our (tiny, little, bloody crowded managable) cellar where all those lovely Christmas decorations have a nap until the first Sunday of Advent. Ransacking and cursing I grabbed our Christmas stuff and found… a wonderful golden Tree Topper - having a rest since the last millenium. I agonized for ages which Topper we shall put on the tree…
A few weeks later - searching for the perfect Christmas Tree - we were not able to choose one - until we saw OUR tree: about 2,50 m (8.2 feet) high, small in the beam and: TWO peaks! No decision needed =)
Oh, I zone out… back to Robbie and the clearance =)
to remove all the other Christmassy decoration scattered to the four winds which we placed with lots of love in countless hours in a splitsecond
to pick the tree out of the rack by using a drill (Don´t ask!!!)
to clear the crop damage =) and finally:
Wanna have a closer look at what I´m talking about? LOL
I´ve been a good girl! You know why? I´ve done my extra-exercises as well! Thanks for getting me running =)
Catch ya,
And now…
… our moment of Homer J.:

Homer: Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It’s what separates us from the animals … except the weasel.
