I really enjoyed this.
When I lived in...Hey, Jan! I really enjoyed this.<br /><br />When I lived in North Carolina, they sold a thing in local shops that looked like a set of hooks attached to a flat, heavy iron weight. It was made just for this purpose; you could put it on the mantel and hang things off it. I can't find anything like that in Scottsdale, where I live, but maybe they've got one in a shop near you.<br /><br />--DixDixon Hillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11220791609338404147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119105822589181967.post-23963564862382986382011-12-19T19:56:15.635-05:002011-12-19T19:56:15.635-05:00Awwwww!

Of course, my mom won't be home, but she's all excited (as we all are) because my younger son who teaches in Japan will arrive in SC tomorrow. I think I'm going to follow David's suggestion in honor of all the SleuthSayers tonight!Fran Rizerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08655783035179620991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119105822589181967.post-62296282098142201662011-12-19T11:27:31.298-05:002011-12-19T11:27:31.298-05:00and a merry Christmas to you, Janand a merry Christmas to you, JanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119105822589181967.post-72672652244381455852011-12-19T08:57:59.962-05:002011-12-19T08:57:59.962-05:00Jan, when I am confronted by similar circumstances...Jan, when I am confronted by similar circumstances I find it best to have a glass of holiday cheer and meditate on the problem. After a while, and perhaps a glass or two more, I generally find the issue diminishes in importance and can safely be laid aside. Your philosphy of waiting until after Christmas to resolve some of the problems you mention is a sound one.<br /><br />Merry Christmas to you and yours.David Deanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13005457506363262838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119105822589181967.post-28335117661664189642011-12-19T08:40:40.704-05:002011-12-19T08:40:40.704-05:00Jan, the lights are not all supposed to go on.
