The start of the New Year means that all things festive have to be packed up and put away so it was time for us to revisit Seeability to remove the decorations that we had put up a few weeks before. The residents had a lovely time admiring the lights and it was sad to put them away but it had to be done.

Claire, Jade and I were put to task in the kitchen removing all the window decals. Sadly, I had just clipped my nails so it wasn't as easy as it should be but that didn't stop us determined deers. Jorge, Dave and Rob were tasked to take down the lights and they set out the front with the ladder. It rained pretty consistently but that didn't stop their enthusiasm for the task.

It didn't take long and within 40 minutes we were pretty much finished. The last job was to remove the Oh, oh, oh's from the glass door (or should that be the Ho, ho, ho's?!)

See you soon, Seeability! We'll be back to help when the nights get lighter.
