LET THERE BE LIGHT, PART 2



Since cats and Christmas trees don't mix, we just throw--and I DO mean throw--lights into some house plants to make Casa de la Flaming Bore look festive for the holiday season. I'm baffled why they don't photograph as sparkly as they appear in person, but you can sort of get the drift here.

All the wreaths and snow globes and other Christmas decor are in place and out of cats' way. And the outdoor lights have long been glowing--mainly because we had such a calamity putting them up a few years back that we just decided to heck with it. They are permanently in place. It's too cold and we're too old to be schlepping up and down a ladder every December. So to keep from becoming humbugs, we just decided, "They're staying up all year 'round."

I have one more Christmas decorating "project" to do, but it requires Big Bore's help so I shall wait until he gets back home to provide technical assistance. He doesn't know about it yet and he's just gonna LOVE it! I won't elaborate today but it involves yard art at its, well, ugliest? I can't wait to get started!!!!
