## It's A Sparkly!
<div class="text-justify">Those are my favorites, the ones that shimmer and shine. A little extra sparkle for the ladies that said I need more unicorns and glitter in my life! You know who you are LOL! The girls and I set up the tree this past weekend. They had a blast decorating it once I got all the lights on. Like a ritual for me doing that. I take my time and try to make it look all pretty. What do you think?</div>

## Now Comes The Hard Part
<div class="text-justify">Once the tree is up, it looks great with all the ornaments on it. But, it still looks naked. What's it missing? The <b>PRESENTS!</b> I have a dozen boxes in the spare room with things just waiting to be wrapped! That tends to take the longest of any Christmas venture. It's well worth it though, seeing the littluns eyes light up brighter than the Christmas morning sun. However you spend your holiday season, <b>REMEMBER TO BE YOU!</b> <i>I always am, even while cussing at inanimate objects.</i></div>
