I am wondering how long it will take before the house looks "normal" again. I still have Christmas dishes to finish scrubbing out. You know the ones. The huge awkward sized ones that don't fit in the dishwasher and don't really even fit in the sink. Those dishes. Plus there seems to be little piles of things stacked throughout the house. And the garbage can overfloweth. Oddly enough, the pantry seems to be somewhat bare as well. Which means grocery shopping is just around the corner. Laundry has been put off in favor of festivities however we did not attend said festivities naked, therefore, laundry piles have grown. And the ironing, oh, did I mention that I was ironing dh's dress shirt at 6 a.m. this morning because ironing was cancelled as well? So I am off to clear the dinner table (I did manage to put a clean tablecloth on it) and tackle the dishes before heading off to iron the rest of the dress shirts. Then I think I'll eat a cookie. Because we all know Christmas cookies don't count and diets don't start till after the new year. Right?

Karen, I know how messy a house can be after holidays. :) It will slowly come back to normal.

Your hair at the picture looks absolutely gorgeous.
