Wintry Time, Pretty Lights

Today I endured Winters deadly rooftop winds for the annual Hanging of the Lights on the Carport Eaves!  The winds did blow, but I persevered.  Now I'm sitting down to some nice, hot cocoa with little birdies and pine cones on the cup.   Take that, christmas!

Got my xmas tree up, too.   This year I went with a black tree, pink ornaments, and purple lights.  Goes nicely with the blue icicle lights outside.   And since I already have all my xmas shopping done, why, I'm ready to go!

Also, say hello to Penelope.  She doesn't speak much.
