[QUOTE="Star*, post: 220283, member: 4964"] Susie, I'm sorry that no one in your family sees the bigger picture here. It's not just a tree - it represents a lot more to a woman. You found the estate sale You purused the sale for your "treasure" You worked the sale in exchange for the tree You brought the tree home It was what your husband wanted and asked for You were sure when he asked for that - he would take care of it So not only is the tree gone - but.... The hunt was a waste Your work was a waste of your time Your great deal was a waste of your time bringing the tree home was a waste of your time Getting you husband what he wanted for was a waste of your skill to find, hunt and bring home the tree, and your time and effort to do it. Everyone leaving the tree out in the rain when you hurt so bad and did all that to get the tree hurts you deeper than just a tree. I would put an ultimatum in effect - and make it of your choosing as to tree, no tree - new tree hubby gets, new tree YOu get....but THAT TREE WOULD BE GONE BY THURSDAY OR I WOULD SET IT ON FIRE One way or another that tree needs to get gone, it's a reminder to you that YOU think your family doesn't care about the things you do to take care of them in the best way you can with the money you have....and your family thinks "Oh it's a free tree - no biggie." Get it gone......Sooner the better. Hugs Star [/QUOTE]
