Every year the same story:
After taking down christmas decoration I always feel strange. On the one hand I am happy: You have a lot of New Year resolutions. You know a new year with all nice and positive things (easter, summer, fall, Halloween, christmas ) is waiting for you.
Forget about the stress during the christmas season; now you have time again for your own needs and you come back to a kind of "normal life"...
BUT - there is also another, bad side: all the glamour is gone. Decoration is down, everything looks boring and cold right now. Even if you decorate a little bit at home for winter, it is not like christmas decoration. I always love the advent with its preparation, celebration with the family and the "magic thing" (I can't describe it - it is a feeling). For me this is also sometimes the boring, cold, dark side of the winter...
