Holy Moly, can one of you Christmas Bug people come to my house and put up my tree????

I just don't have the umph for it this year. It takes so much time, a day at least to go up, and a day at least to come down, it's ginormous, and I love it, I just don't feel like doing it all myself this year.

The kitchen tree (aka the tree H decorated with before he had a house with kids)

The living room tree and some of my village (and a shelf full of penguins)

Our stockings (along with ones for my FIL and his wife)

It will all be ok in the end. If it's not ok, it's not the end

Happily remarried to a wonderful man (Aussie). I think I found the right guy and the right finger this time.

My really sad-looking tree before I added more lights... But I got the cat plugged in!

I'm done here; sick of 2 x 4s

@ ISPIFFD. That is a seriously funny sight. Maybe NIK should try plugging her cat in!

I once had a cat that would scale up the trunk of my artificial tree and jump from the top of it into the next room. I wish I had thought to do that to her!

hahaha wreath of Kahn!

I might need to get on this "more than one tree" thing. I have too many ornaments to use.

These aren't great, but here's the basic tree:

I hope this works. The pics are kind of dark.

This is the banister with stockings.

And this is the tree in the front window. Snowflake theme.

Every year I choose a new tree decoration and buy 3 or 4 of them.
