Last weekend went through the boxes of holiday decor and spread some cheer throughout the living room. After being in storage for three years, I was happy to see only a couple of tree ornaments were broken.
Set up the tree then dug out the Goodwill brand new nativity set, which reminded me of mom's, found a few years ago for $5. Googled the display and found it goes for $249! The bonus was the set included every character, even baby Jesus! Sadly one king lost his head but that was an easy fix with E-6000 glue.
Wrapped the barn in lights, added the animals, angel, kings, shepherd boy, Mary, Joseph, and Jesus. Just love it!
The great news this week was I received a surprise $200 gift certificate from one of producers in appreciation of my work. The bad news? It was for UberEats! Ugh. Put my thinking cap on and used the funds for grocery store delivery along with antifreeze from an auto store.
The hummingbirds have been out in full force once the weather turned cold. One in particular seems to have just discovered the feeder and has staked it out as his own.
Speaking of cold, woke up Wednesday to the sight of snow! Normally take Sam to work but had to bow out due to all the white powder on the road. Happy to report it melted quickly.
Poor Manny has been sick with a winter cold. The couch has become his second home where he's kept himself entertained by watching the FIFA World Cup. I've been using hand sanitizer and Lysol to ward off the germs.
