A lovely story from Tess Karlinski. Solveig is looking for more contributors to her Advent series… If you are interested, take a look HERE.
3rd Sunday of Advent | Day 11 | Advent Calendar
Bedazzled by Teresa Karlinski
Dolores studied the bedraggled excuse for a tree. Branches drooped instead of bouncing proud and wide. What once passed for needles, the sparse boughs presented bristles and wire. The bottom limbs collapsed tired and spent, sweeping the floor like broken wings. She had not bothered decorating for years, yet Dolores dragged the box out of the garage a week before Christmas as if driven. Husband long dead and children and grandchildren scattered over the map, she had no one with whom to celebrate. A hand to her cheek, she paused, lost in forgotten memories. What had come over her? Why had she hung on to this sorry fake? What did it matter? No one would see it but her. You’re a disaster. If it wasn’t so much trouble taking you down again, I’d trash you now.

Dear Sue,
thank you for the reblog! Would you by any chance know a blogger or two interested in joining the advent calendar (I need a contribution for tomorrow’s post…) ? By the looks of it, I am still in need for 8 or more contributors… Would you be interested yourself?
