Christmas has gone Pear-Shaped! by jamibann

Christmas has gone Pear-Shaped!

This little 20 year old home-made pipe-cleaner elf has discovered that everything is not as easy as it might seem - especially in 2020. He wanted to help us decorate the Christmas tree this morning, but nearly came to grief as he almost fell out of the tree! He looks a little like how I feel these days! Old, falling apart and things not going as well as they should be. Be like Elf, though. If you fall down, get up, shake yourself off and be thankful for small mercies!
A real symbol of how things are going for Christmas across the world. Hopefully the small important things will prevail.

The whole year has gone pear shaped but at least we are still safe. Even though elf looks rather dodgy being upside down at least he is still hanging on.

I think we all feel a bit like him at the moment
December 20th, 2020  
Keep safe

Love your words, Issi.

He's a very cute elf with a great attitude. Stay safe Issi.

Summed up perfectly Issi - and bought a smile to my face! I thought maybe he’d been on the Christmas Sherry!

Feel the same! Good words of encouragement!

He looks marvelous for his age ... We all need to be like your little elf.
December 20th, 2020  
Nice words of encouragement, he looks like I feel!

Wonderful capture of this cute elf and great attitude!

A good philosophy but easier said than done sometimes!
It’s a weary world we have at the moment! Not much changed for us as we’re still in Tier 3 but no doubt we are all heading for full lock down. Just wish I had asked the hairdresser to take more off...

He probably knows what he's doing. Christmas is just like that in this year.

He's a cheeky elf trying to cheer us all up and he succeeded in making me smile.
December 20th, 2020  
Makes me smile.

It's a very different Christmas all over the world this year, stay safe Issi!

He doing well keeping going even though he’s quite a mature elf.

Haha! I'm finding more and more that just because people speak English they don't speak the same language. Had to look up the meaning of "pear shaped." Makes sense now.
