Lighting Things Up
We are definitely not the Griswalds. In fact, we rarely put lights up outside our house. My husband claims he is the most envied man in the 'hood come January when everyone else is outside in the cold taking down their lights.
But yesterday we lit things up just a bit around our house.
It only required a few times singing this to keep us in check:
"You better watch out, you better not pout, you better not cry,
I'm telling you why - Santa Claus is coming to town."
No crying, only a little pouting, and viola! Lights - on a timer!
Now if I can just get the tree up. . .
