| The Christmas Weed (not cannibis) |
This weekend I discovered a 20-inch (50.8 cm) weed on our back patio. Trying to get Big Daddy to "get in the spirit" of lawn care, I added a lone Christmas ball and made an announcement.
"This year, instead of putting up a Christmas tree, we are going to have a Christmas Weed," I said.
He laughed, saying it looked like a Charlie Brown tree.
Now, if he would only cut the grass...
Update: As it is now Monday and the weed still lives, I offer up a fractured song lyric.
Oh, Christmas Weed, Oh, Christmas Weed,
How Grinchy are thy "branches."
Oh, Christmas Weed, Oh, Christmas Weed,
As cuddly as a cactus.
Pernicious as a dandelion,
Will you be here past Christmas time?
Oh, Christmas Weed, Oh, Christmas Weed,
How Grinchy are thy "branches."
Do you have a Christmas weed (not cannibis) just waiting to be trimmed? Share a photo!
