What To Do Now...hmmm....

Now that Christmas is over....

There will be no more Christmas songs
on the radio or at the malls

Santa has finished passing out toys to good little girls and boys
 

The wrapping paper and ribbon pieces are scattered all over the floor 
and the Christmas tree is starting to wilt and get dry...
unless, of course, you have an artificial tree 
(*My sweet husband noticed a tree on the side of the road that
someone had obviously lost off of their vehicle. It sat there for a couple
days before he picked it up and brought it home so
our grandsons could "smell Christmas" when they came in our house.
I dubbed it our "Road Kill Christmas Tree")

Our traditional Pretzel Salad won't appear until next year and all
the cookies, Stollen bread, and yummy baked goods are getting stale .

Now what should I do to avoid 
those dreaded
Post-Holiday Blues?

Well, I'm going to get ready for some hopping...
Blog Hopping that is!

will be the amazing hostess for this hop!

Some of my words:


A little sneak peek at my wordy project

  5. A road kill tree -- that's such a great idea! Now you've got me imagining a children's book about a little Christmas tree that had its dreams dashed when it fell off of the truck and then, in a last minute miracle, got to fulfill its purpose...

    I might still need more sleep! :-)

  8. That word project looks so tempting! Do you still have some room at the end of the bloghop for me? I would love to participate. Do I need to make a finished project or is just one block enough?
