‘Twas the night after Christmas, when all through the house
Not a thing was away, not a toy, box, or blouse.
The stockings were thrown on the floor without care,
And knickknacks and gadgets were strewn everywhere.
The gift wrap was scattered. The boxes were strewn.
I gasped as I looked all around the trashed room.
What was I thinking, when I bought all this stuff?
Why didn’t I realize five gifts were enough?
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of organization danced in my head.
“But where should I start?” I wondered inside,
“How can I begin, when I’d rather go hide?”
You’re asking yourself “Where will all this stuff go?”
It feels overwhelming, this I well know.
You’ll get it put away, just remember to breathe,
And with this handy download, you’ll get it all done with ease.
Hope you’re enjoying your day!
Cute Aby! Great work!

Very cute poem. I can say w/my shopping this year for my family I did take into consideration how useful and where would the stuff go. Let me towards more practical stuff however I did get a few non practical items!
Merry Christmas Aby!
I solved the “Where will all this stuff go?” problem this holiday.
I specifically requested NO GIFTS again this year! However, I did get a beautiful, soft, hand knitted alpaca scarf in a lovely shade of burnt orange from my GrandBrats. The scarf has a practical use and a ‘home.’ I’ve been blessed. I’ll go in the closet to give away two scarves tomorrow. :>}
I also explained to my DD why I didn’t buy or make ANYTHING to clutter up her home. I hope(I think) she truly understands. It’s easier to pad the Grandbrats account with $$$ for the future than clutter up their rooms with STUFF. ;>}
Have a HAPPY CHRISTMAS!
Very cute poem! Thank you for sharing with us all.
Adorable poem… I even read it to my hubby who enjoyed it… especially the line “while visions of organization danced in my head!” That is SO me! Thanks for sharing! 🙂
