Christmas Lights

Ok, first - I found a way that I can play my Sims game in a window - so now I can play my sims while doing other computer stuff, like now for instance - my new Legacy family, Nicole and Sheldon, just got married and are on their honeymoon on Twiiki Island. As they're combing the beach for seashells right now, I am taking the opportunity to blog...

So - Thanksgiving Day is over and it is officially the Christmas season... quite a few houses have lights up outside, and thank goodness. It just seems so DARK. I know that is like the uh-duh of the century, but it is true - the first few weeks of Daylight Saving's Time, I just feel so tired, because it is so dark... and the Christmas Lights - they are just so needed to brighten up the spirit... it truly is no surprise that so many holidays based around light - Hanukkah, the Pagan Festival of Lights (Winter Solstice) etc., all gather around this time of year. It is just needed.

My Sims are at the beach now, swimming. It is unfortunately, raining, so I am going to get them out of the water before they get electrocuted. Maybe we'll had to the spa and get a couples massage...

Sp anyway, my toes are so cute - bright holiday red with a snow man on one toe and a holly leaf on the other...

OH! The people who are across the street and one house down have their lights up - three separate strands, synchronized to some annoying tech-y music. I am glad I don't live next door! The lights don't match, and it is so bright when a whole strand blinks on and off. It is not done very well... but maybe it will be better next year with practice... now that they have an idea of how it works...
