VLOGMAS

Blogmas???

 Is that a thing? Like VLOGMAS? But blogs? Hmmmm… 

IMA DAY LATE THEN!!! lol

Anyway…

Scenes of Christmas past…

I was thinking of sorting through some decorations yesterday to start the festive month off… BUT

We had quite the storm the night before…

Lil concrete bunny 

Heavy but tossed to the ground!

I had to put the wreath the right way around… 

Where’s the pic of the wrong way tho…? 

Maybe the wind blew it down the other end of the blog…?

Flipped pot.

Tossed pot.

Had to move the bike

The bike that no one wants

Who has a twin 

Living in our cellar…

Oh the carnage!

Nature placed.

Holy Hell!

How much of this can I take!

Here it is!

You know what they say about 

A wreath facing the wrong way…

Log holder cover

Gone walkies.

Another pot done.

Two new leaning trees 

For me to chop on!

Do you see 

Twig trellis and arborvitae 

Reaching for each other 

In their moments of distress!

Don’t blow that ikea lantern!

It’s been in the family since 2016!

The lounge chair had it coming.

Always lazing about.

Spiffed.

Right as rain…

Maybe this lil one needs accompaniment?

Across the street there were several leaner trees 

All caught up in the trees next to them…

See!

The men with the biggest chainsaws came out in service!

To cut the smallest of trees, that could have killed somebody 

As they drove down the street.

Luckily no one was hurt…

And the crew that had just come through the week before to preemptively trim the dead standing just feet from these

Murder weapons…

 I guess maybe they weren’t wearing their glasses that day.

Right.

Lol

Funny but not.

Sorry 

But 

Not.

Oh well.

That’s all fodder for the whatever right…???

Let’s end on a Xmas note. 

Omg, Charli Girl from 2014!!!

No grey in her muzzle…

Ack! So cute.

Kk, so I’m rushing off to get some Christmas in our decor.

Deck the halls and presents for pretty girls, etc…

May your fire burn bright my friends!
