I know that we made some important decisions about our Christmas lights last year. There were some critical changes that we were going to make this year. We had a plan. Not sure what it was now-but I am certain it was good. Has that ever happened to you?
As soon as it is dry and I am fairly sure he will not slip and fall, I send my husband up on the roof. Sunday turned out to be a perfect day. In the end, we decided to simplify this year. I love the look of these bulb lights. When you use light clips you can get an almost perfect line with perfect spacing. {I am an “all white lights” kind of girl inside, but I splash out out with red bulbs on the house.} I spent most of my afternoon up a tree. Methodically, I wrapped hundreds of white lights around the limbs of our Japanese Maple. Risking my life, numerous times, to get a strand just a little bit higher. The pay off is totally worth the risk.
The Christmas train has left the station and I am joyfully on board. Don’t let it run you over. Just take small steps and find the joy of the season. Make a plan.
What is the first thing on your to do list?
