That winter lull

The Christmas decorations are down, and the presents are put away. What's the next major holiday? Well, for us Christians it's Easter. But that's in April, which in this frigid state seems a million years away.

So I've been doing some hardcore Valentine's Day decorating. What I've found is it's difficult to find V-day stuff. I went to TJ Maxx yesterday and found some, but Wal-Mart doesn't carry it, and Target and Kohl's had very little. The baby loves the red, and it's fun. But it's still winter in New England, and it's still below zero with the windchill. And that sucks. Maybe we need to light a fire.
