ah, a real tree this year...

We went to our local fish and chips feast on Sat, after market...and the little shop next store had some lovely spruce trees...at a reasonable price... so Bruce picked one up this Sunday am.













This tree will need a trimming to fit in the spot chosen... it smells wonderful.

Trying to simplify Christmas this year.... we'll see.
Bought a card game for this year's get-together... it's called: "Quiddler".. and it's a word game, as we all enjoy words!... B & I are going to try it out today.. to see how it works...

Going to get the outside lights up..now ...that all the lawn furniture is gone from the front porch...it looks naked outside!!

Cute tree indeed...

oh "browner" you are so funny...if you get your mom drunk I want to be there to see that. After all it has been too many decades to mention since I saw that.

Looks like you are getting ready for the 'holidays' Leslie. We're getting a real tree too this year.

Oh the smell of cat pee-pee, the smell of Christmas :>).

how is your tree surviving? is it in a bucket of water outside..or all decorated and in the house?

we were thinking of going to Ikea, Pay $25 for a tree, get a $25 gift certficate to spend Jan. - Mar. Must spend $75 first but ha! phfff! no problem there.

Hope you enjoyed your first total weekend off since forever :>0.
