Taking tree down

We meant to take the tree down yesterday, which was the 12th day after Christmas. However, Emma and Barb came over yesterday (before Emma heads back to Ontario) so I didn't want to host in the middle of chaos. Once I had the tree out of the house, I left Margaret the unenviable task of wrapping ornaments and boxing them up and I visited dad for a while. He was alone in the TV room with a Youtube channel on, playing rap music videos which intercut the singer with pit fighting. Who thought that this is was 80 year-olds would want to watch? I finally found the right remote and put on a John Wayne movie. Ideology isn't any better, but at least it had horses.
