Christmas Tree


 Andy, Ken’s friend and our gardener took me to our local garden center to buy a Christmas tree so I bought this prelit tree. Andy erected it. I think it has all sorts of sequences to the lights but haven’t tried them yet.. I also bought some baubles which I will hang but will take time doing it. I am not sure I have it at the best angle for each layer and think the manufacturer could put slots so it could be shown to its best advantage, anyway so far this is the best I have come up with. 

I don’t feel a bit like Christmas but think I should make an effort for Ken. Last year we didn’t do anything, our first year for years that we weren’t in Spain where we always had a tree and friends to Christmas dinner.  This year I am making an effort I am not sure we will ever be able to create the excitement of Christmas past but at least we are making the effort. Ken loves the tree, he is in a lot of pain so has gone up to bed so I will start to decorate it so when he comes down tomorrow he will see it. I have ordered more baubles but they will take some time to come so it will be slow progress. I haven’t yet found something for top, in Spain we had a star. I am looking on line, when I was a child it was always a fairy doll but don’t want that, maybe an angel or another star.
