So, my dear friend stops by and tells me to stop being a hillbilly. She is probably wondering the same thing as me? Why is it February 6th and my Christmas Tree is still laying out in the front yard???????? Ok when the man put the tree out over a month ago and noticed the first day when the trash people didn’t take it, maybe it was time to institute a new plan. Nope, obviously someone thought it would miraculously disappear. Me on the other hand knew it wouldn’t, but figured I would wait around and see, just maybe. Well it didn’t………………..still here
So what’s a woman to do, take care of business, get her hands dirty!!!!! So I ask my dear friend, where exactly would one put a tree………..in the woods, DUH. I man up, grab the tree and drag it up the driveway, through the yard, in the cold, to the woods. Yes when I am done, I feel like a lung collapsed and now have to sit down. I can’t breath because when I finally get to the woods, the tree doesn’t want to cooperate and proceeds to fall on top of me. Friend says, “Maybe I want to be discreet….well i failed on that. How exactly can you be discrete with a tree taller than you anyway, I mean I guess I could have waited till night. Nah….daytime is better!! Have to live up to my hillbilly ways. I noticed the woods behind my house were lame anyway, so I spruced it up.
What I really want to know is how a tree that hasn’t been watered or taken care of, weathered snow and every other crazy weather we have had this season, really just chilled on the front lawn for over a month is still GREEN. I mean if this was a Rose in a vase, that I watered and fed everyday it would be dead.
Most importantly, well if you want something done, JUST DO IT….Nike fashion!!!
Live, Love, Laugh
