holiday clean-up

I took off the balls from our Christmas tree, washed and stored them.
Tomorrow, I hope to take down more Christmas decors.

It feels quite sad. And here I am just getting used to the decors.
It's less than a month since I put them all up. In previous years,
our Christmas tree was already decorated as early as November 1. But
this year, I decorated late because I was too busy preparing for my
operation last November 22 and then recuperation.

I haven't even recovered from all the New Year preparations and late
nights but I might as well tackle this clean-up. It's quite tedious,
saddening but hey, I'll be seeing them again 10 months from now :)
