This year, in our new home and a new chapter in life, I decided NOT to get freaked out if my lights didn't work. The first strand I pulled out was half lit and half OUT....into the trash instantly. From then on, it was all uphill and no burned out strands, so far.<br />I am a happy camper...:)bj https://www.blogger.com/profile/09327534885194207074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-16680578672069884422013-12-05T23:02:36.688-05:002013-12-05T23:02:36.688-05:00I have a similar bowl, Vee, awarded to my late fat...I have a similar bowl, Vee, awarded to my late father-in-law for the excellence of his cream!

I usually use it for my vintage balls but didn't this year. I like the drifts of snow with the lacey doilies. There's nothing more annoying than lights that go out in the middle of the tree or on the tree period when all the ornaments are on it. You'd hear me screaming and crying all the way there I'm sure. Didn't you hear me that Saturday when we put the tree up? Ugh! Did I mention that I like your new header? I remember your upside down snowman. :) Pamela Gordonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18071092617682650349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-37753091656377689772013-12-05T12:23:54.955-05:002013-12-05T12:23:54.955-05:00I like everything about your branch display.

Three cheers for that.<br />Apparently Brett and I have also been hanging out with you and John and Carol. He's already been to Lowe's 3 times for replacement strands for the pre-lit tree. Last time I said buy an extra strand. At the rate we're going it will be needed.Happy@Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15748146424809856063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-49552533047935892142013-12-05T11:34:11.140-05:002013-12-05T11:34:11.140-05:00Wow....lots of beautiful touches!
