Yes. The days will be getting shorter from now on.
Or longer, for RB & DG.

I thought I could even tell a difference today, even though it's only been a few days .

It could be psychological or it might be caused by darker clouds but the length of day changes only by a few seconds around the time of the solstices.

My local pub celebrated Christmas in July one year, even sang carols.

August very soon. I can live with that, I guess, but this year has gone very quickly.

Glad I don't have to think about Christmas yet.

I actively try to never think of Christmas.

I actively try to never think of Christmas. That must be tough when you look in the mirror

I like the lights and tinsel and turkey dinner, though actually for the last cpl years I've not been able to eat much. But I still like the lights.

Lights are my favorite. I need the pretty things in my life. Iβm so lucky to have as many friends as I do that I see so very often. Even more now that I have opened two stores. Looking forward to the season really.

I need to buy a new box for the Christmas tree since our basement often floods. A cardboard box doesn't seem like the best solution.

Post by tangent on Aug 27, 2023 22:45:36 GMT
Haha yes, a waterproof plastic box perhaps.
What do you do when it floods? Pump out the water or leave it to drain?

Post by kingedmund on Aug 28, 2023 14:16:21 GMT
Yikes. Waterproof definitely.

Haha yes, a waterproof plastic box perhaps. What do you do when it floods? Pump out the water or leave it to drain? Leave it for now. It's on our list of things to fix. It's a long list and not the highest priority atm though.

I understand that. These days prioritizing life is unavoidable.

And a fact when you buy an old house with enough budget to do quite a lot, but not enough to have everything done.
