I had some trouble trying to figure out where to put it up. All the surfaces in my house have junk on them. (My kitchen table has just enough room for me to eat amongst the junk mail, magazines, church newsletters, bills, and pay stubs.) I finally decided that the little counter in the middle of my apartment would be the best place. It would be prominent and there is a lamp there for illumination. This little counter also happens to have the largest concentration of junk on it. I finally just pushed the junk aside and put up the nativity.
It now looks like Jesus just came down into the middle of my mess. But if he would have waited until I sorted through and cleaned up all this junk, he would have stayed bubble wrapped in the box until the second coming. (Christmas Eve sermon? Eh?)Endnote: Yes, there was a stapler at Jesus' birth and most definitely a roll of duct tape.

Is that deodorant in the foreground? Perhaps it should be gathered around the manger with all the tradition animals, popular adhesives, and staplers....
Nope. That is actually a can of FingerEase. It is used on guitar strings to make them last longer.
My mom has that exact same nativity!
You know Scott, I didn't ever picture you so messy. But, the duct tape never surprised me!
