Moving The TV Behind Me

With my mother's gift, I can move the big TV behind me.

"It's a Fire Stick from Amazon", she said.

So, taking the once believed worthless 40" monitor, I set myself in the study to work on bills.

Next, I lean the screen against the kitchen radiator to watch Netflix as I cook dinner.

Yesterday, "Little House On The Prairie Christmas" keep me company as I mixed flesh tones in the Art studio.

Nate asked if the TV will follow me all winter.

"Yes," I respond solemnly.

I'm not sure why I love this travelling screen of stories, but in cold MAINE, it brings me sanity.
