I wrote I wasn’t going to put any sort of holiday decorations but in the last minute, after seeing how haunted my house looked with a flickering garage light, I decided to put up some battery-operated lights on the windows, held up by none-other-than tape. They go on and off automatically, so I won’t have to worry about a thing.

#SundayStills: Monthly Color Challenge – Holiday Red and Green

#SundayStills – Hobbies
In January of 2020, I toured a house where the hostess has a hobby of collecting nativity figures from every country.

Some of these figurines were very intricate while some even required special instruments to see.
I wonder if she had done it again for Christmas 2020?
