Advent Wreath put Away

Hello, As I washed dishes, Leroy took apart the advent wreath, cleaned off drips of wax, and got it into the box. The table is back to ordinary size so it is easier to get around in the kitchen. I like having this wreath out, but it is nice to put it away again. Reminds me of traveling. I like to go, but like to get back. Tomorrow or Tuesday the Christmas decorations will all go away as epiphany starts then. Again, I will be happy to have them out of the living space. Now if we could just find that epiphany star. Leroy was not feeling well this morning so he stayed home to watch church online. I walked by myself which is just fine. I was vain and did not put on my hat. That was not so fine. My ears were mighty cold when I got to church. Vanity is not a virtue? On the way home, I wore my hat and felt much better although it was still cold. I figure I can comb my hair or it is only Leroy who sees it? The book club met this morning and I did not want to miss that. I enjoy our discussions and the fact that we all seem to like slightly different books. Each time we rate the book as well as make comments about it. I go to another book club. I will have to get Angela’s Ashes by Frank McCourt and read it. I have read it before, but I know it has some darkness to it. Some days it is easier to read emotionally draining materials. Paula
