I decided yesterday that I would put up my Christmas lights. It's nothing too difficult. USUALLY takes MAYBE 20 mins to do. I outline my front porch eave with lights. I put two strands up and realized I was a strand short, and I couldn't find my extension cord. I figure it's probably "borrowed" by some local musicians that used to practice in my garage.
Well, I had to run Austin to work since his car is without a heater. I decided to run to Alco after dropping him off. We got there WAY to early so he hung out with me for about a half hour. I picked up what I needed to finish my light job, dropped him off at work, and was looking forward to finishing up.
I got home put up the last strand and realized I strung them up BACKWARDS. My extension cord would be hanging right in the middle of my front steps and across my front porch. Thankfully I didn't have to take down the last strand. Just the first two. After hanging them back up CORRECTLY I was able to sit back and wait for the timer to turn them on.
Now, I have my lights up, my shopping FINISHED, gifts halfway wrapped, It's a Wonderful Life, A Christmas Story, How the Grinch Stole Christmas (the cartoon) and Charlie Brown's Christmas watched, and now to get my tree up and wrap the rest of the gifts. And it's not even December. LOL.
