After finally finding a tree I liked and bringing it home to decorate; I stand and ponder at how I want to transform it into a thing of eclectic beauty.
Deep in joyous thought, I notice a few branches wiggling about. Upon closer inspection I see two eyes sparkling at me from the mid bows.....Anubis, my Egyptian Mau, who has never encountered a tree, thinks she has found the mother of all forest playgrounds!
Anubis, who fetches like a dog and eats like a mountain lion, has now a new lesson to learn. Don't climb my Christmas tree! A trick Iv learned to accomplish this, was to put pine cones around the base of the tree ( they hate stepping on them) and a few small balloons next to the trunk. One claw and 'boom' its scares them from another attempt of conquering your tree. So far, its working! I couldn't be happier. My ornaments are safe.
Now that I have no more to worry about, I notice the sun has cracked through the winters fog and the earth is warming up again. This is my chance to take a walk, a jog, with headphones on and some holiday peace in my heart.
What will you do..simply... to enjoy your weekend? Don't forget to laugh at things that would generally irritate you. It lightens your mood. ~Peace out my friends
