Random things

I have spent much of today wrapping presents for the family Christmas get together this coming weekend.

Here are a few random thoughts that occurred to me while wrapping.

In the category of odd Christmas decorations, how about a Mr. Potato Head Santa?  I found it strange, but apparently the kids on the street love him.  He lights up at night.

My husband likes to keep his phone in his shirt pocket.  A few weeks ago, he bent over to pick something up, and yet again, it fell out.  But, this time it hit the floor in that perfect spot, so it cracked the screen.  He was able to get the screen replaced, but how to stop this from happening again?  I suggested we try a small piece of velcro.  I used the sticky backed velcro, and the looped end piece.  The phone has not slipped out of his pocket since.

Out for a walk, and then an evening with needle and thread.  The unseasonable warm weather continues.  Looks like we will have mosquitoes, not snow, for Christmas.
