Nope, not even a year twisted into a ball of knots in the basement could take the sparkle out of these bright little bulbs. So untie them slowly, hang them quickly, and help get the whole neighborhood shining.
AWESOME!
(Big news! We’re gonna unveil the book cover next week!)

I’m quite surprised that, despite our other amazing technological inventions, that humans have not figured out a more effective method for making this happen more often.
Personally, I’ve never experienced this.
Also, congratulations on the book progress. I can’t wait for that cover. Although why do I think it might involve bed-head baby…

Seriously. This will be my 35th Christmas and I’ve yet to see it happen. ;)
But that’s why, if it does ever happen, it will be truly AWESOME.

Haha. I remember putting lights on the tree when I was young without testing them first. Then having to take the entire string off again because they didn’t work.

We’ve never had that happen, I always end up scavenging for replacement lights, and this year was the worst, because we got a 3 new sets last year, plugged them in this year, and all 3 don’t work, and I ain’t got a clue why, so now we got 3 new sets, and plenty of replacements, heh heh.

This is so true in the case of putting up Diwali lights year after year it is a struggle of uncoiling, dusting, hooking up without smashing any of the little bulbs and then holding your breath when turning the switch and lo! they are on in all their twinkling glory..small victory against obsolesence!
