Basically it means I'm awesome

Christmas is officially, officially OVER in my neck of the woods. In fact, the holidays, period, are over (for now).

All indoor Christmas and holiday decorations came down early last week. I had a moment of motivation and decided it would be best if I just did it. Or I would still be looking at my Christmas tree in February.

But yesterday I completed the dismantling of the holidays. I took all the lights down outside. My house is back to “normal”.

You should also know that in order to take all the outside lights down it required me to get on the roof. Yes, the roof. Me.


I was on this roof.

Now, my house isn’t huge and only a single story, but for reals, that roof pitch is steep! And scary as hell.

Besides, do I look like someone who normally frolics along the rooftops? Pssh, no.



In fact, the only reason I had lights along my roofline was because MIKE climbed up on the roof in the first place!

I am pretty proud of myself. Basically this was the first big step in my plan to rule the world.

Bring it 2010, I ain’t scurred of you!

Um, yah- I would never get on my roof. Mine is even steeper and I have a story and a half. SCARY.

You have the cutest house! We still have our decorations & tree up. I keep saying I'll pack it all up soon but to be honest I have no idea when I'll get around to it.

Good for you for taking the bull by the horns & getting those light down by yourself. Bravo!
