It goes on display at the public library today, hopefully making it down my steep driveway in one piece. I used elements from previous years so, on the good side, there wasn't as much trauma since I knew where to avoid the pit holes.
On the bad side, I'm typing with numb fingertips due to hot glue gun incident and the kitchen is one big sticky mess. I ground up leftover white chocolate shingles in the food processor to melt and fill in roof gaps. At least that was the general plan until I knocked it off the counter, breaking the handle off my 38-year old processor and getting itty, bitty waxy bits of chocolate everywhere. It even ricocheted around the corner so that the vacuum picked it up on its wheels. I actually had to clean off the wheels of my vacuum. If there is a more useless waste of time, I'd like to know it. I'll be cleaning that crap up for the next month.
The library doesn't have a Toys for Tots fundraising event, but I stuck the sign in anyway to push the hint. There was a moment when I considered added a mounted, antlered-deer head ornament over the door, but sanity stepped in and bi+ch-slapped me back to reality.
I am, however, genuinely concerned that this highly religious area will NOT get my humor and think the melting snowmen are insulting. Also, I'm possibly advocating Robot Violence.
Warning, Will Robinson, Warning!
