Time to get the Christmas lights from the storage area and put them on the bushes outside. I used to go all Clark Griswold with the lights, but the kids are all grown and I don’t care that much anymore. I’ll be done in 30 minutes.
It’s funny. When we moved here in 1995, Kevin was 2 years old and I put up the lights by myself. Over the years, as the kids got older they all helped me put up the lights. Now Kevin has moved to Colorado, Jimmy is away at college, and Mike has to go to work. We’ve come full circle. I’ll be putting up the lights alone again. Time sure flies when you’re living life.
