I don’t know about you all, but this is exactly how I feel after Christmas and New Year’s. After all of the celebrations are over and the decorations are put away, it’s still freezing outside and it still gets dark too early. After January 1, I’m always ready for spring!
The post-Christmas blues is part of the reason I haven’t blogged much in the last week. It’s also taken me quite a while to sit down and sort through all the holiday photos. This year, in an effort to not make blogging become chore, I’m not going to set any goals about daily blogging or photography. I’m merely going to blog when I’ve got something good to share. Some of those posts may be quality photos that my loyal blog followers will enjoy, and other posts will be snippets of my life that my real-life friends will enjoy seeing. (After all, the top blog posts of the year where about purchasing our house and re-doing our dining room – neither of which produced great photos.
Happy New Year!

Amen! Yes, it’s sad to take down the tree and all…however I must admit I do enjoy how much tidier my house feels without the decorations! Sort of a minimalist though…
Totally ready for warmer temps too…I’ve got house painting projects I want to jump into and get done!
Ah yes, I do enjoy less clutter once the Christmas decorations are down. We’ve got lots of outdoor projects to tackle as soon as it warms up too! And I know they’ll be even more of a challenge with a new baby at home.
So true. We have awesome neighbors who brought us dinners and mowed our lawn for us a few times after he was born. I hope the same for you!
Hello, I needed to read your post today. Often I bind myself to having a daily blog post…while I’d still like to accomplish that, at times it means posts that are not well thought out. Thanks for putting into words what I have been struggling with too. Kathy
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I completely agree with you, and it’s nice to hear I’m not the only one!
