Comment on Must Have Christmas Storage Products and Ideas by Maureen A Stanford.
Barb, Barb, Barb…
Where have you been all my life? O.K. I’m 67 yrs old so that gives you some wiggle room of 30-40 years but these ideas are genius! Every year for 47 years I have been promising myself that “next Christmas” all my decorations will be neatly organized and labeled. Bwahahaha…who was I kidding besides myself? So then today I come upon your post and I am inspired. Inspired to do the right thing just once before my family carts me off to the “old folks home”. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I actually picked up some plastic cups and Solo cups this afternoon. I may have used one of the Solo cups to indulge in an adult beverage but that’s that’s another story. January 1, 2018 I can be found packing away ornaments and lights at a furious pace and it’s all because of you. By the way, I’m not too terribly concerned about being sent off to you know where. I’m still the best cook in the family and the grandchildren have to have somewhere to go when mommy and daddy take that sanity break they’ve been dreaming of. You know, the meal they’ve been reminiscing about where everybody cuts their own meat and gets to watch (dare I say it?) an R rated movie with a glass of wine or a bottle of beer. Yeah….old age does have its’ perks. You just have to put up with the graying hair, aching muscles and a host of other age related infirmities to enjoy all of the freedom that comes with it. Is this a great country or what???
