Assessing the situation.

So, Christmas countdown has begun. And, first order of business is assessing the situation.

So. Lights for the roof are toast. Zero is in need of some cosmetic repair. And Jack…

Well, Jack had issues last year to begin with.

And, the last minute repairs to Jack after he fell and broke last year were tempermental at best. The hands did not hold up as well as hoped, and the head is still showing some signs of wear.

In addition, his annual storage fiascos have left him minus legs and arms needing another repair job.

I’m considering scrapping Jack all together after this year, as he’s just too difficult to store with our current storage situation. Besides, a host of Gremlins in the yard sounds like a lot of fun…
