De-tree'd

I have beaten the holiday rush, and taken down my tree already! And it's not even Christmas yet! ^___^

The reason for this is really quite practical: my side of the family's Christmas party is done, and Wonderful Husband and I are departing on the 24th (yes, Christmas Eve) to go to England to spend holidays with his family there and also visit some friends in Cambridge for New Year's. And given that Sushi has already destroyed upward of a half-dozen ornaments, and that I will be extremely jet-lagged and Not Wanting To Deal With This upon our return, Christmas stuff gets packed away extra early this year.

Now to figure out what else I need to accomplish on my day off....
