Checking in late today........
The last tree is up and I had to improvise. I don't have a star or topper for this one as I used the star on the other extra tree. Della's Irish doll works well as a semi angel doll. I still have to get outside to do the lights but that just didn't happen today.
Have you ever had one of those days when everything you start as a project seems to take too long or it just doesn't work out to a finish. I had too many mistakes and barriers that just kept the day being an unsuccessful one that I don't want to repeat. The harder I pushed the more things just kept not working. I just finished walking a few blocks to buy some heat to put into my car gas tank. Hopefully the car will start by tomorrow morning.
We were at 7 degrees this morning as the temps dropped all night. Then we had a southern wind and it is warming up again. It was melting snow this afternoon. We are back down to 32 degrees F. now at 6 in the evening.
Ah yes, there is another new day and I will be glad in it.
Thanks!
I often have days like yours! (especially in the kitchen!!!) The tree is very pretty. Your weather sounds miserable. Wishing you a good Sunday.
ReplyDeleteToday will be a better one - hopefully.
ReplyDeleteYes Sunday already looks to be better. On days like this I should know better and just stop working. I aggravate the situation when I try harder rather than just back off and reevaluate. Deadlines should not be the driving force.
ReplyDeleteI love the doll as the topper. One funny scene from a Harry Potter book is when he is spending Christmas with friends and he states something like..."nobody really even noticed that the angel on top of the tree was a gnome from the garden in a dress and wings." If you get to the library look up the book Order of the Pheonix (i think). The picture of the gnome will make you laugh.
ReplyDeletei have been corrected - she tells me that the book title is Harry potter and the half blood prince.
