My mom wants to blanket our entire roof with Christmas lights. I have no problems with it. In fact, I think it’s a great idea. My dad’s a bit worried about the bill, but he also likes the idea.
While dad is worried that our electricity bill might jump up exponentially, I’m quite concerned about the prospect of having homeless parents this Christmas. I’m sure you’re aware of fires resulting from faulty Christmas light wirings. While the incidents have dwindled through the years, still the harrowing possibility is present.
I haven’t raised this concern yet to my mom. I don’t want to dampen her yuletide mood with my apprehensions. After all, this is the season to be jolly. Maybe I’ll just run a court records search on the manufacturer of the Christmas lights that we’re going to buy and check if they’ve been charged for offering faulty products in the past.
People should be very diligent about this. Otherwise, chestnuts won’t be the only things that will be roasting this Christmas.
