Searching for the light

Part 2

Light indoors, light in town

The low sunlight was shining on me through the pines.

2011-11-23. Here I was not dark olive. I was walking under the coloured lamp in the play ground. Also this jacket became purple. Real cool :)
2011-11-23. I needed a winter jacket. My green summer jacket was too cold now. I made a lot of nice walks in this winter jacket. Then the cold wind could not chill me. I kept warm.
2011-11-25. We got a Christmas tree on the yard. it was a beautiful tree. But there was no snow, and the sky was not clear. That's why this picture did not went out well. But I wanted to have it here because this was the first day the tree was glowing.
2011-11-24. It was the first advent weekend. Again I took a picture of our building. Now the scaffolding was there. It was a  dark night. this picture did not went out well neither.

The scaffoldings on the building. At the right the workshop of the workers.

2011-11-25.  The playground was still a fairy tale land even though we did not get any snow.
2011-11-25. Inside it was nice and cosy  with the Santa lamp and the lava lamp.
2011-11-26. Now our home looks like this. And the next week the balcony railings will be gone.

The day before there was hard wind. The wind tipped over the little tree. Then I went in into the Glass House and told it to the staff. They put it up again and had it nearer the house so the wind could no catch it.

2011-12-08. Now it was dark. There was light on the scaffolding. Should the workers be ready before Christmas. I felt sad not to have a balcony and peace around my home.
2011-12-08. But what was that? Me, Dark Olive Foxy heard somebody by the tree on the yard. That somebody was Santa Red Foxy. Santa said: "Don't worry, it will be Christmas this year too, what ever may be.
2011-12-08. After that Santa said. "Look the scaffolding is decorated with a Christmas heart made of metal sheet.  Some kind Santa cut it with plate  shears. He, he, he ;)

I see the light!
