Picking out a Christmas Tree

Nat King Cole – Chestnuts roasting on an open fire

Here is my Facebook post:

Geewhiz, picking and cutting a Christmas tree, 10 days after surgery with drains still in, no make up, and still taking a bunch of meds. I felt good yesterday for about 5 hours. It was a perfect time to get the tree, weather wise, and not a lot of people where they could run into me with their elbows. Haha.

This is what my daughter posted: 

So proud of my mom and her ability to recover so quickly this past week and the continuous love and care my dad has for her. She’s most definitely the strongest woman I know and I thank God every day that she’s still here ‪#‎blessed‬

I had a great time with the family.  I had to rest all morning and took a nap.  I had to gear up for going in the late afternoon.  Very thankful for this day and great weather.

My dad.  It was a steep hike up and back down looking for a tree, but we found the perfect tree and it was well worth the trip.
