Just as well she was there really, as I slipped on one of the rafters and fell (luckily) into a pile of unused duvets. Could I get up?? No. I guess after a while I would've managed, but with Emma's help it was all made a lot easier! So I've decided to put the dec boxes out in the mancave or the garage) then I don't have to worry about getting them back up into the attic, and then down again next year...and then up again.... not looking forward to that. They may have to stay out in the mancave or the garage forever!
I found these knitted thingies, I made years ago, in with the Christmas decs...there were quite a few of them-lost to the many boxes in the attic that I can't reach probably. Robin Hood and a Snowman...see! I can knit! Well, the tree is up and decorated....not as much stuff on it....it gets less and less every year, lights are in the windows...I want to put up some outside lights. Not much chance of that as I can only get on to the second or third run of the steps! And! this week I'm House sitting three dogs! And, one of them is staying with me for Christmas...
Never too late! My goodness, you avoided an accident in the attic didn't you, thank goodness for a pile of duvets and Emma! Glad you're ok and managed to get christmas decs sorted, I think the garage is great place to store the decs for next year! We have proper stairs going up to our concreted attic and I still hate having to go up and down with the stuff! I love the little knitted characters, specially Robin Hood, he doesn't get enough attention if you ask me!
ReplyDeleteI hope you didn't hurt yourself when you fell. I hate going in the loft if there is no-one else here (which there never is) so I tend not to... that's why it's still full of stuff that shouldn't be there anymore! Hope you have a happy Christmas . Happy WOYWW Helen #2
