Pulling Double Duty

I think I mentioned (no, I know I did) that I somehow got way off schedule again. In order to get back to my chart I need to go one step at a time so I do not get overwhelmed. So I am doing double duty to try to move in that direction.
Normally I clean the upstairs bathroom, and spot clean the upstairs on Tuesdays, but in order to make up for not doing that yesterday, I had to do that this morning.
I will still need to do all the stuff I usually do on Wednesdays. Which is a bunch of stuff that start with the letter B. Oh, by the way, Happy Hump Day.
So there was this tree out front, a Honey Locust Tree, that was a problem for me. It shed tiny leaves prolifically that you could not rake up in the fall because they were just small enough to eek through the tines of the rake. In the Spring that thing would dangle little seedlings in the shape of spiders from all over itself, all through the air, moving in the breeze and make me crazy. The spiders loved it as it was the perfect 'cover' for them. Yuck.
So after decades of living here the decision was made to cut that tree back. I mean WAY back. The Tree Trimmer asked me if I wanted it to grow back? Actually, no. So he did a something to it to keep it from re-sprouting but preventing it from rotting out. I thought this to be the perfect solution.
But now I have this very tall (about 20 feet tall) stump in my front yard. Not pretty really. Not ugly, just not pretty.
So I have decided it must be decorated. This is my nature. I love bling. I love glitter. I love lights. I love sparkle.
I also love butterflies and fairies and gnomes and all manner of such things as that.
The decision is made to decorate this giant stump with a tree face, wind chimes, gnomes dangling from swings, and fairy things.
Is that just a little crazy? Maybe.
Oh so much fun though!!!

How do you make a tissue dance?
You put a little boogie in it.
