A Little Glow

I'm getting into Christmas Lights again.

Years ago, I had lights for Christmas, but the caretaker came by and told me a big fib saying 'everyone is complaining about how bright they are, so turn them off!' I said the were off by 9pm. He stood his ground, and I took down my lights - even though they were inside the window of my house.

A couple of years later, I found out he was the only one put out by them.

But I never put Christmas lights out again. He did complain about my tinsel - to which I told where he could go. My house, my tinsel.

Now, the body corporate has told me they're encouraging people to put up lights to celebrate Christmas because they're pretty 😍

So I'm starting to.
Good you have stood your ground. Sounds as though some of the people in your complex are a bit of a pain.

@onewing yeah. Back then, I didn't have the courage to stand up for myself. Now I'm older I do.
@sewfree thank you. So am I.

Some people just get carried away with their perceived power.

@joansmor how true. This is one of the reasons why I don't talk to anyone here anymore.
