It's Beginning To Look a Lot Like Christmas

My tree is up.  My wooden tree.  This is the third year for it.  I still love it.  A friend made it for me and I painted it and put the gazillion hooks in it!
I bought another string of lights this year!  I still think that it needs more lights. 
I just wish that I had a blank wall to put it beside.  I could even leave it up all year - take all the decorations off and put plants on it or something!!

Guest Post- Some Holiday Cheer. Please?

My long-time online friend wrote the following article and it perfectly puts into words the way I feel about bullies and people who look down on others.

After thinking about the entitled jerk behaviors I witnessed last night at the airport...

Here’s some perspective for all the ridiculous rage monster crazies, AND so we all can avoid *being* them this time of year 😂 because we’re all capable lol:
If you can afford to fly in a plane somewhere, or be picking up a loved one who can afford to fly to *you* for a happier holiday, get over your angries. It’s hectic at airports, stores, and restaurants between now and New Years.
PLAN AHEAD. WAY AHEAD. IT’S THE HOLIDAYS (duh).

It’s a really big pet peeve of mine when people who *don’t* plan ahead make their self-inflicted stress/lateness/rush everyone else’s fault and expect special accommodations *on top* of us all putting up with their ridiculous ragey tantrums. Anyone who has worked in retail/restaurant/customer service/airports literally laughs at and mocks people like this in employee break rooms everywhere. And puts your name on a black list. Because yeah it’s everyone else’s fault and we are all incompetent idiots that you aren’t given special permissions to jump a line, park in ....

I got it from my Mommma Matthews 👋🏻👋🏻
I'd like to wish my favourite person a very
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!! 🌺🌹🌷🌸 (Especially
since this is the first year EVER we will not be
together on this day) I wouldn't be the person
I am today if it wasn't for you. So thank you for
everything that you have done for me & the things
you'll probably still do 😂♥️ I'm glad that I didn't
 get switched at birth because then we wouldn't
 be able to pass as sisters with your wrinkle-free face 😉
💞💞💞I LOVE YOU MOTHER 😘😘

Christmas Tree Project

I wanted a wooden Christmas tree because I needed one that could take up less space.  It is flat against the wall so this is what I came up with.  One of my brother's friends built it for me. I did all the painting.  My daughter and I decorated it.  I think it looks great!!
