Deck the halls (holiday stream of consciousness)

[cornerofmadness]

or more like swear, fling things and nearly die.

Yes it's foggy and rainy but it's 50 so i FINALLY get out there to decorate the porch. My garland is two different colors but that's okay. My wreath is pretty (but it likes to shed things)

and then the star of the show, the new star lights I just got at Big Lots. I try to get them up over the window. THis should be a piece of cake with all the helpers I have. There I am, balancing on a chair in my bare feet (so I can use my toes).

No clear packing tape but I can hide the duct tape. Besides silver is seasonal (go with it). The bloody stars won't untangle. Oh look, a twist tie

Shut up Sanzo

Chrono don't pull on that

Still won't come undone. Oh look another twist tie

Shut up Roy

For the love of God, NO, Chrono

WTF STILL can't get them apart. How many @$%#$ twist ties are there? Ah, success. hide the wire in the ledge. fa la la la la. Tape...

Shut up Sanzo.

Roy get off of there

Chrono WTF?

Azmaria, at least you're good

Tape, why don't you stick? More tape needed. Hold dubious. Screw you holiday season. More tape.

Die felines die.

Success. Get off the chair, plug in. WHY was I so stupid as to NOT check the lights before hanging. Because they were brand new and I was in a rush. Two don't work. Hmm well they are chasing/ waving stars maybe no one notices. If they fall down, they'll go back, if they stay up, live with it.

Carry chair into house. Four furry bastards race in. Stumble with chair, nearly die. Find the monsters. Put them out.

Sit down with hot chocolate and LOTS of rum. Amuse people on the net.

Ornery? You should try my dogs. At least your cats don't demand that you make things for them. (http://anguisel.livejournal.com/62613.html) At least, not yet anyway.
