The neighbours put up their tree garland and lights along the balcony last week and my mom is doing it this weekend. “Before it gets too cold,” she says.
I love seeing the lights all winter long. It makes it less gloomy as darkness falls earlier and earlier.
One bonus part of removing some of the stored Christmas decorations from under my bed (there’s no storage space in the apartment building) is that I found Ava’s favourite toy mouse that she stashed away among the wreaths.
It was part of a cat advent calendar filled with cat toys instead of chocolates. My mom got it for Ava (well, for me because she knows Ava brings me joy) last year.
The last time the toy mouse was found it took only hours before Ava hid it again and I couldn’t find it anywhere until today 😄🐈⬛
