Probably 2 weeks ago we received a number of Christmas cards in the mail. It was a great day as we delightfully opened and read each one. Some with sparkles, some with snow but every one with some words of encouragement and joy! My mom has always hung the Christmas cards around the house and my wife does the same thing. This year its been a little more difficult than most, though. Since we are … frugal, she made the choice to buy some little sticky hooks instead of 3M quality because they were a much better price. That night she hung up the cards on a string hanging between two hooks. Actually, there were three strings filled. The next morning there was one … and it wasn’t a trick of the eyes. The top two strings fell directly onto the bottom one. And before it could fall, Angela managed to rescue them. On her second attempt to hang the cards, Angela got more creative, I think it involved crazy glue or something. Anyway, the next morning the world came crashing down. She finally gave in – the heavy duty hooks are hanging on the wall – do you think they will last the night?
