I have two sisters. There is enough crazy between the three of us to go around, but Peg takes the cake when it comes to obsessive compulsive cleaning. This is a woman with two children, so there are some feelings involved here. This is a picture of her family room on CHRISTMAS DAY - I left the date stamp on the picture to prove it. She was so pleased that no traces of the holiday "clutter" were left, and that everything was neat and tidy. ON CHRISTMAS DAY. She emailed us the picture, just to share her holiday joy:
How messed up is THAT? I am a reasonable person, and will admit that while everything else has been packed away, I still have a little nativity scene on my fireplace mantel. I like it, and besides - Mary and Joseph probably hung out there for a at least a few days after Jesus was born, don't you think? Besides, January 6th is the Feast of the Epiphany - the day the wise men arrived with gifts. I'm glad the family, shepherds, animals and angel on my mantle were there to greet them!
