Written Satuday
Last
year we were the
only
house on our street
to
put up Christmas lights
and
decorate our yard.
This
year everyone
started
yard decorations
early.
Our
roof was being fixed
and
then it rained.
Until
late today we were
one
of the few houses
on
our street that wasn’t decorated.
We
appeared to be "bah humbuggers"
but
we are really not.
Our
roof is finally finished
I
had noticed on Wednesday
that
the flatbed trailer was gone
–
the one Roland insisted remain at
our
house until the job was complete.
It
rained all day yesterday. Sometimes
the
rain felt like snow. I was
doing
crosswalk duty again.
All
students had been ordered to
go
to the gym after lunch. I would
much
rather stand out in the
rain
then be in the overly loud gym.
It
was nice today. I didn’t even
wear
a coat. Roland wanted to go to
Winston
to look for a coffee table. He
took
me with him. We were gone for
a
long time. It felt long.
I
was afraid it would be dark before
we
returned. We had promised Jenna that
we
would decorate the outside.
We
did get home before dark but
did
not finish with the lights until after dark.
Jenna
and I plan on finishing with
big
bulbs after we return home from Church.
