SENIORS LADY: MINI DACHSHUND CHRISTMAS TREE!

 

When I see parents with kids jumping 

up and down, I smile. They are in the

 toy aisle of a department store. The 

kids are discussing what toy they 

want for Christmas. 

Some of the kids over age nine lead 

their parents to the Electronics 

Department for view of  latest cell

 phone, notebook, and computer

accessories. 

My children are grown, so I no 

longer endure discussions about

 trendy toys and electronics.

I am a purple lover and usually

put up purple Christmas decor.

I wasn't feeling up to doing that 

this year.

 I was Christmas shopping with

my Mom.  I spotted a display of 

mini Christmas ornaments. There 

were packets of gold dachshunds 

dressed in red Santa outfits. This 

was the cutest ornaments I had

 seen this year. I have a dachshund 

mix dog, so I had to buy every packet 

I could find. Only three packets 

were left. Now I needed a mini 

tree to put the ornaments on.

None were in stock at this 

store. I visited a couple of 

Dollar Stores and finally

found a mini tree.
