Feeling Guilty About The Star!
Tuesday, December 8th, 2009Christmas time and my halls are decked, yet, this year I have a quandry! I have cheated on my angel! As the kids and I were decorating we realized the tree this year is a bit shorter, and the 12 inch angel just didn’t look right. She stood like an Amazon woman high atop the pine, and not in a very angelic pose. In fact, she was downright scary up there! She looked like one of the combatants on “The American Gladiator”, TV show! So, the hunt for a smaller in stature, but still heavenly angel took place. I drove high and low, stopped everywhere along Polaris parkway, and came up empty handed! So, for the first time in as long as I can remember, we have a star on the top of our tree this year. It’s pretty…gold, and white, with changing hues when plugged in…but it’s no angel! She sits cozy in her box, back in storage until next year, when you can be sure we will plunk down the extra cash for a bigger tree. I owe her that much!
