One-Liner Wednesday – Energy

Whomever  lives in this house has a lot of energy for decorating. Still missing the snow.

Photo: The same house I posted a picture of at Halloween, now with some awesome Christmas decorations: lights, nutcrackers, trees, wreaths, and lots more.

One-Liner Wednesday – All we’re missing is the snow

We’re going back into lockdown on December 26th, but at least we have lights.

One-Liner Wednesday – Being human being

For all my promises about January yesterday, I totally forgot to schedule my One-Liner Wednesday post last night.

This being human thing is getting old.

And this human being thing is getting old.

One-Liner Wednesday – It’s beginning …

…to look a lot like Christmas.

I had to buy a new tree. It came pre-lit.

Finally, I can literally plug the tree in.

(Photo: a fully decorated tree. Alex did it all by himself this year.)

Yep. There were leaves.

One-Liner Wednesday – Rorschach Test

At first, I saw this sunlight through the leaves on my wall and thought, isn’t that nice. A heart.

But the more I look at it, the more I think it’s actually a set of fake vampire teeth giving me the finger.

What do you think?

One-Liner Wednesday – Torture (without pain)

Last week I walked around the block with Alex, half of it with a leaf stuck to my shoe. He wanted me to take it off–he insisted I take it off–he needed me to take it off, but I told him I wanted to keep it until I got home. It was my autumn decoration.

What is life if you can’t torture your kids?

One-Liner Wednesday – The Brain

The human brain is amazing: I’ve gone from “coffee hurts because it gives me heartburn” to “heartburn is comforting because it means I have my coffee.”

Also, it’s fall! And I went for a walk down by the waterfront today.

Here’s hoping I don’t wake up after five hours of sleep feeling like my arm is in a meat grinder tomorrow!
