Lights for the tree… oy vey!

I decided to pull out my Yule tree last night. I got it up and then started stringing lights. I found that two of the strands of lights don’t work anymore. Today I went to…. SIX different stores looking for lights. I use blue lights on my tree. No multi, no other colors, just blue.

First I went to Kmart (where I usually can find anything I need.) They didn’t have any blue strands. I then went to Ollie’s. I didn’t see any lights and the place was crammed with people so I left. I went to Dollar General and there was a man looking at the few lights they had as if he had found the holy grail. I left there and headed to Big Lots. No luck there. They had some red strands, but I wanted BLUE. I then tried Home Depot and they were no help either. Then, I went to Target. Fabulous Target with so many good things. They had multi, white, green, and what was that? YES!!!!!!!!!!! Three boxes left of blue lights. I got two of these and happily made my way to the check out.

I came home, put them on the tree and then finished decorating it. I think it looks pretty nice too. I’ll upload pictures to my Flickr when I finish this post.
