Do you--or someone you know--have one of those giant snowglobes that are displayed in front of K-mart, the giant ones which are supposed to go on the lawn to spread Christmas cheer with the flick of a switch? Well, now you can not only display your Christmas spirit--you can apparently live in your snowglobe, too. There's a bit of the "people who live in glass houses" effect, but otherwise, it seems rather cozy. Click on the link to find out.
Growing up, I have to say that my family had a lone, life-sized light up Santa, who stood on our front lawn (or, as it happened one year, the roof), though there was always something a bit poignant about him, all by his lonesome.
Mr. Strega keeps promising to get some large inflatable holiday decoration, the tackier and larger, the better, just to be as silly as possible (now you can see why I like him). He claims the giant inflatable Christmas tree would serve two purposes, as our regular Christmas tree AND a yard decoration! Now that's practicality for you....
My name is Joan McMillan and this blog is, as Emily Dickinson says, "my letter to the world." I am currently working on a nonfiction book about the murder of a young woman, Asha Veil, born Joanna Dragunowicz, and her unborn daughter, Anina, on September 9, 2006. My book is meant to honor her life and illuminate the need to create a safer world for women and children.
