Re: Who Has A Christmas Tree Up?
i thought about it but decided against it, its too much work, and the clean up is a bitch, and when you think about it, its totally a waste of time and money.

Re: Who Has A Christmas Tree Up?
When the kids were younger we went all out and got a real tree and decorated it as a family...then Christmas Eve when they were tucked in I'd drive to my office where the gifts were wrapped and stored...but my babies are all grown up now :(

wow I love historical homes, we live in an area where if you tear down a house to rebuild it you have to ask the city and bring your plans over because theyre considered heritage homes...and theyre very serious about it...a lot of the homes were built with the old cobblestones from the river and well I will have to upload a pic but I love historical homes

Yup, just a fake tree, will not kill a real one, pagan or not, I see it as a global celebration of our Lord Jesus Christ's birth.pope

Re: Who Has A Christmas Tree Up?
Me!

We used my roommates artificial tree, which was given to him by someone who didn't want it any more. So its recycled and we didn't have to cut down a real one. I made some new garlands for it, and bought a huge bag of used (glass) ornaments at the thrift store for four bucks. It looks completely awesome.

We are not really a family. It's just us and my dog. But we sometimes feel like a family. I will be making pot roast in my crockpot, with mashers and gravy! And we will have a real fire in our fireplace, probably watch a good movie.

We are not terribly religious, though we each grew up in a religion (Catholic, Episcopal). But we do believe in God because that's sometimes all we have. We are both over 50 and have had a terrible time getting work the last few years. We try our best to survive. We will be attending church this year for at least one Christmas service.

I am determined to feel that good old fashioned Christmas spirit, no matter what.

Merry Christmas to all!

"God bless us, every one."

Many retired ones are still kids in their hearts :-)

Re: Who Has A Christmas Tree Up?
No tree this year, the house is too small and the living room is my sewing room flower Plus, there is a kitten in the house.

I do have a few lights on the front porch and on the mantle. And I'm making gifts.

Re: Who Has A Christmas Tree Up?
I won a tree as a door prize, so I have one up right now. Normally I wait until a few days till Christmas and get one of the Charlie Brown type ones that the local Christmas tree people sell at a self service lot. Right before Christmas, I can get a nice one for for around $5.

I don't have a single ornament on it though. I just like having the tree.

Re: Who Has A Christmas Tree Up?
Damn right I got a tree up! It a tradition down here in the south. Right after Thanksgiving we put the tree up and get the youngster in the spirit of Christmas. It's really a great break from the mundane and doom.

What the heck ?

It didn't cross my mind, hahaha :-)

I thought that you can pick a nice gift and leave it for a poor kid somewhere.

Or make a Christmas tree as a gift for someone who's not so lucky to have one this year.

Is much easier than your idea of picking a kid and bringing him or her to your house :-))
