To think my house looks empty and boring now that the decs are down and I have a sudden urge to buy a lot of house stuff?

Decs only came down today so it's my first time sitting in my living room with it back in it's default state.

It suddenly looks so bland and boring 😭 I know I'll get used to it again but it's making me want to go online and buy loads of crap for my living room.

Anyone else feel like this when the decs come down?

Yes I know! I have ordered a garland for the fireplace I must admit, with green leaves and white roses!

Yeah every time but I think it’s natural

That will serve you right for taking your decorations down on New Year's Eve!

Resist! Stay strong and you'll be used to the norm again in a fortnight.
