What you see is my discarded Christmas tree. I had to capitalize on this break in the schizophrenia storm to get things done -- one of those rare moments I feel active. Sadly, I packed up all my ornaments and the lights and put them away for another year. I so enjoyed my first tree in years and am sad to see it go. The smell and the glow of the lights all served to bolster the spirits of this soul.

I hear you. Taking down the tree holds a bit of sadness for me each year. But I am one of those people who when Christmas is over, it all comes down .. sometimes even on Christmas! How bad is that.
Good for you for getting stuff down! You're motivating me.
Taking advantage of a lucid day and one not fatigued my negative symptoms is a good strategy. I do the same and get some of my best work done in the a.m. when there are no negative symptoms. These can be rare days and it is good to get things done.
I'm sad to see the tree go, too. But that means a new year, new beginnings, new chances.
Happy new year Andrew. This is going to be the best ever, you know.

I no longer put up a tree. I used to like to undecorate, because I redecorate as a normal activity. The tree and decorations were a nice diversion and by New Year's Day it was onto Valentine's decorations~my fav holiday of the year.
I love the sun-shiny photos. Thanks for sharing a bit of your world.
