The house looks SOOOO empty

It's amazing. Christmas decorations were up barely a month but now without them the house seems empty and soulless, like a museum or mausoleum. Of course, downstairs its still Christmas because it'll take at least another day or two to get it all put away.

And I leave in a few days. It was 60 today. Now it's 35 (and my body is SCREAMING over the huge drop) and the day I'm to go home, it's going to be 10 and 3 at night. Oh well then.

I also slipped on the stairs carrying Christmas crap and landed on my bad shoulder. Can't wait to explain that to the surgeon on tuesday.

All I did was undecorate and shop for Mom who is feeling a bit better so here have some stuff

How about two original stories I did for 12_daysofficmas (and explain to me why I wasn't smart enough to put my stories here and just link to them???) They're both in the Kept Tears universe so I hope you'll read and enjoy them.

Mountain Pass (should be read first)

Holiday Lights (still a stand alone but set about a week after the first).

And I did several memes.

The first was from idic_writer Comment with ""Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock!"
