This is the first year since I moved to New York that I
decided to have a Christmas tree! Past
years I just wasn’t feeling festive and I would typically travel back to
Virginia for the week in between Christmas and New Years, so I figured – what’s
the point. Well this year is
different! My neighbor Jamie used to
live in my apartment before moving and she had the
perfect little tree. Since she has moved
on to the bigger apartment which has higher ceilings she no longer needed the little
tree and passed it on to me – yay! It is
frosted, pre-lit and stands about 4.5’; I’ve decorated wit ith little ball
ornaments and I have more to hang. I love turning off all the lights in my
apartment and reading or watching TV with the tree lit – it makes me happy!
In other new I finally have new (to me) TV! For those of you who don’t know I have rocked
my 19” boob tube TV since freshman year of college. Back then it was the biggest TV on the hall
but in the age of flat screens, high definition and a decent paying job my beloved little TV simply won't do. Now to me a new TV is not that
important and I was/still am pretty opposed to the idea of spending $400+ on a new TV so
when my neighbor got a new TV and offered to sell me her 30’ flat screen for
$100 I said ‘sure’! The TV is still a ‘boob
tube’ but it MUCH bigger than my other one and has HD capabilities. Not to mention it is really nice! Adam says it is a definite step but I am 'not there
yet’. Either way – this new addition
will do for now and in the mean time I am enjoying watching TV and looking at
my Christmas tree!
