As much as I had thought about starting Christmas lights a week or even several weeks early this year (because 2020 = SUCKS while Christmas lights = anti-SUCKS, in case that wasn’t obvious), the intentions might have been good but the work load and that whole “only 24 hours in the day and that’s the LAW!” thing sort of ruled that out. But now it’s after Thanksgiving, the normal time for starting to put up lights, in no small part because there’s a four-day weekend, so off we go!
I got up about half of what’s normal for this house over the last two years, but it’s the harder half with almost all of the roof lights and ladder work done. The lights that still need to go up go into those bushes and ground cover and that’s pretty straightforward and quick. (I hope!)
Plus there’s a 13 day-old moon rising, one day away from full!
Still need the lights over the garage door, but let’s hope it’s quick tomorrow and Sunday. Remember, if you aren’t blowing circuit breakers, you can still put up more lights!
We Love The Stars Too Fondly 
Many of my neighbours put theirs up last weekend. There are several areas that are doing a ‘lights map’ this year like they did a rainbow trial at the start of lockdown.
Mine wont go up till next weekend, if it’s decent day… I had my cataract op last evening and I need to look after it – just a little. It’s wonderful seeing things clearly today 🙂
