she's here

My Christmas tree arrived just a little while ago in a truck 

driven by two of the nicest young men.

They put her in her stand,

made sure that she was straight,

and bore with me while I had them maneuver her to the perfect center.

They were amazed at how beautiful she is.

She's got to fall out a bit until I decorate her.

Now I need to water her and wait.

We have a family text chat.

I sent this picture to everyone.

I offered $50.00 to someone who would come and help me put the lights on later in the week.

So far I have two takers.

Lucy has offered to help and not get paid.

She is such a dear girl.

I won't divulge who the other offer came from.

I appreciate all the offers for sure.

I am loving decorating my home 

and preparing for Lucy's 18th birthday tomorrow evening.

I should have been a decorator and a cook.

We're having steaks to celebrate the big day.

Hopefully, I can take some pictures while throwing the party.

Oh, I should have taken up photography too, and writing.

I do all of these things but just for fun.

God knew that was better for me,

Anyway, I wanted everybody to see my tree.

I 💗 it!
