A Moving Christmas

Up to my eyeballs with boxes of history this decision I made is really no mystery. I've worn myself to a definite frazzle but as I look around it's beginning to dazzle! A crazy time to pick up and go yet the time was ripe for leaving I know. Sad to tell my dear sister good-bye; we certainly both had ourselves a good cry. As the miles burned by with the roar of the truck I thought about my good fortune and luck. I'm blessed with friendships so wondrous and rare; they've helped me so much nothing can compare. Now the crumpled newspapers lay in a pile; I need a good rest but I'll work for awhile. There's cleaning,unpacking,so much to do but it caught my eye and a crazy thought grew. In the midst of this chaos a tree now shines bright; stepping over the boxes I plug in the light. A smile glazes across my tired face and Christmas arrives in this new-found place! *note* I really just moved 4 days ago and I did put up my Christmas tree despite how totally exausted I am! Happy holidays everyone!
