o no lights out.......

 as you can see here we have a bit of a situation. one evening while me and my oll lady were lounging around before cashing in for the night and baby girl was off in slumber town, the mid section of the tree cut off. son of a biscuit! just change the strand you may say, well its not this simple. ya see, back a year or two ago me and the lady went to that all so famous improvement store and bought a pre-lit tree. mainly for the convenience and safety being that we use a wood burning apparatus. after a bit of calming down with help from the wifey, and a good nights rest under my belt,  operation evergreen began. with the wifey off at work i had to get to the root of the problem. well after some testing and inspecting i soon discovered a faulty plug(ladies, the pug was a male, go figure you may say).


  so i needed a new plug off something with the same amps and current to help prevent running into any electrical issues later on down the road. hmmmmmm......... where could i find such a plug on short notice? yep if you  guessed off another Christmas light strand you would be right. it just so happens that this strand is wrapped around one of mommas fine x-mas decorations.........yep you guessed it...snip snip..o  no he didn't!!! the above pic is of the donner strand after the operation
 a little crimping, some electrical tape for good measure and.........


walaa................i wonder how long it will take momma to notice.....and yes Mandy your sweet darling baby girl was an accomplice. here she is hiding in the shadows. i guess shell be on the naughty list this year.
