Christmas 2023
Christmas 2023
I met my friends
We laughed at the same jokes and stories
We have been laughing at for the past ten years
I did not cook or clean
until I had been home a week
Then I broke down and cleaned the kitchen table
So we could eat there if we wanted to
We ate there once, my husband and I
We did not have to decorate
I have had my three foot tree up since 2020.
It is a flashing fiber optic night light in our living room.
My husband asked if we could take it down.
I gave him snake eyes, and he shuffled off.
I am the Queen of Christmas around here.
It is one of my favorite do-nothing-holidays.
