I think this is what is referred to in the advertising world as "Miller Time".

I can relate to that....lol   After the gang left last night, I sat in my chair like a zombie and just stared at the tree.  I was mentally and physically exhausted.  I was also all "funned out".  I took a nap and around midnight, I made a plate of food for myself and drank a glass of champagne.

So enjoyed having everyone and extra pleased that meal was a success but definitely had that “phew” feeling. Happy hour in order.

Can relate. Cleaned up yesterday then went to bed early. Then woke up in the middle of the night! Oh, no. Still having a casual day today. Husband and I are listening to audio book. He's stretched out on the sofa. Good grief, we'll need to repeat this CD! Ha. Have a good week everyone.

I'm there.  I've been cooking and baking for days, been to the grocery store 3 times since Saturday, had 13 people here for two days (four teenagers), two little dogs to worry about with all the commotion going on.  Everyone's gone and I'm sitting here nursing a cognac (Christmas gift, God bless my son-in-law) and watching Rear Window.  I feel like I've been run over by an 18 wheeler.  It's been rough, but so worth it.  I hope my grandkids remember and do the same for their kids. 😊
