It's over!!
The tree is down, the "mess" is cleaned up, the presents are put away.  Time to relax and not have a tree in my way. 
Don't get me wrong.  I like Christmas.  But that tree was just taking up too much space in our living room!
The tree is now being eaten by the ponies.  I kid you not!
I'm working on the second pair of socks for my brother.  He liked the first pair, and they fit just right.  Wish I had remembered to measure them :)  I think I have to knit a pair for his BIL for Christmas next year - his wife asked me how much they would be.  When I get his done I'll be knitting a pair of socks for ME!  With some yarn that I was given for Christmas; Rodeo colorway, can't think of the brand name right now.
I got a new mixer for Christmas.  Hubby asked me not to break this one within 6 months.  I'm hard on mixers.  I think you should be able to blend soft margarine and sugar together with one - am I wrong for thinking that??  And one that I broke it wasn't really me, it was our son, because he dropped it.  It just happened to be discovered to be broken while I was holding it.  And the last one was second hand when I got it - so it was closer to dying than a new one would have been!  Yup, I killed 3 mixers in the last year.
I'm kinda tired and cranky today.  Hubby has a cold, and he's been coughing at night.  It keeps me awake.  So it's all his fault. 
I think all the knit Christmas gifts I gave were well received.  No one has complained about them anyway.  Of course, I haven't heard a thing from my SIL, so maybe she and her hubby didn't like their scarves??

Dorothy,
I think it's so cool that your ponies eat the tree. Talk about recycling :)
We still have our tree up. It stays there until the first week of January. Did I tell you I can't let go of Christmas??
I hope your new mixer lasts a little longer and you make some yummy goodies with it.
