free trees are outside!

So I went for a run yesterday. And during my run, not one, but TWO people got free tree parts! I know! There are trees everywhere! They just sit there! No price tags or anything!

I ran in the woods and found a small "tree" on the ground. It's part of the pine tree family. I don't know exactly what kind it is, but I'm calling it an awesome fir.

It was a dangerous trip. Not one, not two, but THREE dogs barked at me while I was outside! That's, like, dangerous! One of the dogs was even on a leash! Scary!

But! I also saw some guy pulling a branch off a tree! Not a connected branch. One that broke off and was just hanging there. He ALSO sees that free tree-stuffs are everywhere!

We are smart shoppers.

I brought my 7-inches of awesome fir home and put it in a pot with some potting soil. I also bought some Miracle Gro sticks to put into it. I hope that keeps it alive. I put all 20 in there, so that should help.

I will decorate it with star wars ornaments, popcorn and lights.

I will put it on a high shelf so Santa can pile presents up under it. Because that is still technically under the tree!

I'm off to decorate my branch.

Enjoy Everything.

tree sale

I saw a tree for sale yesterday. I don't know how that works, but there was a "For Sale" sign posted on a tree in somebody's yard.

I guess they didn't need the tree anymore and thought somebody else could find a use for it. I don't know what the price was, but I did think about asking. Unfortunately, my apartment has low ceilings, so I don't really have anywhere to put a tree. I COULD lay it down sideways, but still, it probably wouldn't fit.

I think trees need a lot of room to grow. They like yards and stuff. And the roots need dirt and water. I would not be able to supply that.

I used a French Press for a while, but I don't anymore.

Sometimes I get new things and then lose interest in them. So, it's probably not a good idea to spend money on a new tree.

I'm off to see a man about a tree.

Enjoy Everything.
