OK, so I like to collect wood. I find it peaceful. And I love having fires in my fireplace so, yeah, getting the scraps at the Christmas tree lot was almost as exciting to me as getting a tree at a really decent price.
Last year we didn't even GET a tree - I finally had free time with a week to go before Christmas and by then? All the trees were sold out. I was thrilled to get ANYTHING this year and we got a nice tree for under $30 and I got a bunch of scrap wood, too...
And as I told my kids, I will go trolling there later, too.
Emma started singing "Mommy's Paradise" to the tune of that fabulous song I am sure you all know... "Gangster's Paradise"... ummmmm... fabulous.
