Christmas Toolbox 2014

By now y'all know about my toolbox obsession. I love to collect them and manage to decorate them for every holiday. The minute I see an empty toolbox my imagination runs wild!
Our gardener, Carlos and I started putting up outdoor lights yesterday and we ran into all kinds of snags. I thought I had plenty of lights for the project but we ran out of lights. Two circuit breakers clicked off. Once because we had too many lights strung and connected to one plug and another time because we used one of my Daddy's extension cords and it fizzled. It's always something.

We worked for two hours with another helper too. Fortunately Carlos is a very patient man, but very artistic too. I knew he would do a great job because he helped my neighbor put up lights too. We were quite pleased with what we had accomplished, but then …

David came home from work and said "looks great so far, but we need more lights." So I'll be back at the store picking up more lights. For those of you living in Texas ~ if there is a power outage ~ it might be my fault ;-)

Bentley had fun yesterday. When he wasn't following Carlos around, he was chasing squirrels. He did so much squirrel chasing that he is doubling up on his naps today!
