Richard, Poster of the Year 2013, you make me laugh and think and are kind, so
in your honor I'm making a new thread even though my new threads rarely get
replied to boo hoo!
Emily and Bob, just so you can stop wondering about my reaction to the photo
of Ann's tree and GET A FRIGGING LIFE, I shall now enlighten you both about my
immediate and mundane reaction to the photo of her Christmas tree that Ann
posted. Hold onto your seatbelts!
Huh?! But wait a minute! I've seen this photo before! Is this the same photo
Ann posted last year?!
That's it, Emily and Bob. That was my immediate reaction to seeing the photo.
Of course since then I figured out that most people use the same ornaments year
after year and put the tree in the same place. So maybe it is a current photo
of the current tree. But the photo sure looks suspiciously familiar. Go figure!
Of course it's a very lovely tree and photo so a repeat appearance is good
too.
No, this year my tree is in a different spot. I wasn't going to bother to go
take a picture of the "new" tree this year, upload it to the web and then move
it over here for this thread. But the tree this year, in its new location,
looks just as Christmasy and the living room is still as homey and the new
puppy we have makes it all even better. Here she is, just arrived from the SPCA
last night. We're calling her "Fledermaus" for obvious reasons. Puppies are
incredibly good for the soul, not to mention the abdominal muscles.
