Whispering Words of Wisdom, Let It Be

My favorite Christmas tree stand was open on Monday. I did not get the perfect tree again this year though. The variety I like was under represented. But you make due. I still got a beautiful tree. It just does not trim like butter.

Speaking of trimming, I had trouble finding my nippers. I should have taken it as a sign. I really should have. I had the perfect bottom on the tree, even freshly sawed by the seller for me. But no, I got trim happy, which means I had to saw a new bottom. :( Grrr. And now the tree wants to wobble. Next year, I will let it be.

But this way the turtles have fresh cut pine tree limbs to hide in. Some good with the bad.
