Have you put up your xmas tree yet?

I actually do have my christmas up, I decorated on Sunday, I guess now since I'm not gambling I have TO MUCH time on my hands, :D

My husbande wants a tree like that now, but with beer cans, :eek:

Weird, I just just going to say the same thing:D

I'm a scrooge... bah-humbug... don't put up a tree (the cats would have it ripped to shreds and scattered through the house in 5 minutes after I turned my back)... don't put up outside lights either (too damn cold putting them up and taking them down). :D
 
Mousey, Mousey, Mousey, what do we have to do to get you in the Holiday spirit..If it makes you feel any better, I have 12 cats and when I wake up I spend the first 2 hours looking for christmas balls and as I'm looking for the balls I am kneeling in cat puke filled with pine needles, not only that, it's hard sleeping when I can't help laughing all night listening to the balls bouncing on the hard wood floors, Oh yeah, I had to get rid of all my glass balls and fancy
ornaments just to suit the cats..My railing is decorated and so is around my kitchen/dining room with pine, lights and ribbons, come see the teeth mark in
them..I thank god that cats sleep most of the day, at least when people come over they never know what I went through..Ahhh, only 36 days left til christmas, I can do this for another month, LOL
PUT THAT TREE UP, Mousey, I'll be checking in :D

sorry to dissapoint everybody but christmass has been cancelled,


Santa Claus AKA Father Christmas held a press conference for a baying mob of waiting reporters aboard an icebreaker off Greenland today where he stunned those gathered with the news that Christmas has been cancelled until further notice.

Santa, who looked a dishevelled & beaten man was asked by a reporter from 'Which Xmas Tree Magazine' how he could disappoint all the little girls & boys who have been good this year. Santa said.

"The credit crunch has hit us hard at the North Pole recently. Not only has the cost of materials tripled over the last year but also large parts of the factory keep floating away & melting."

"I've had to lay off hundreds of Elves without pay & with their pensions linked to the stock market the sheer desperation has caused a vulnerable few to sell their Elvish kidneys & other organs to black-marketeering Gnomes. I myself have even had to shoot a few of the reindeer to save on fodder."

"Traditionally we're a non-profit organisation but we are now considering a merger with Toys-R-Us & Royal Mail if things dont start to improve quickly. I may even have to rent out my sizeable sack."

Santa also warned that if the Pixies didn't lower the price of 'Pixie Dust' he may not even get the sled airborne this year. One of the few reindeer left uneaten, Rudolph, told us.

"Ever since Santa got a call from the External Revenue Office about his unpaid back taxes & the bank turning his loan application down on the luxury Igloo he'd planned for his retirement he has maxed out all his credit cards buying huge amounts of Gingersnaps, Brandy & Advocaat. His drinking has become so bad his nose is getting redder than mine & more disturbingly he keeps getting into fights with Polar Bears."

Later Santa Claus appeared to stagger from the Press conference clearly inebriated & in possession of a large bottle of Babycham. He was heard shouting abuse at the paparazzi as he left.

If you use good litter, have enough litter boxes out, keep the 'presents' scooped out regularly, feed the cats good food, and keep your cats healthy, litter boxes don't stink up the house. :p

Nope, Laurie... no hope for me to put up a tree... I hope not to be home Xmas week ~crossing fingers for a Tunica trip~ I'll let the casinos worry about decorating and baking the Xmas ham. ;)

And someone mentioned T'giving... Yikes! I'd almost forgotten! I've got to get out this week and buy my little Butterball.... damn holidays... LOL
 
LOL, nope, just 3 liter pans, and a good liter..there's one thing I don't go for and that is a stinky house :eek:, when you have as many cats as I do, you ALWAYS have to be on top of things, poor cats, as soon as they go I am up there butts scooping liter, and if you walk in my house you won't even find a piece of hair, nobody believes I have 12 cats, I have never missed a night of not brushing them, it takes time but I love my kitties and I love my home, so it is a lot of work, but SO worth it, and I wouldn't have it any other way..

That is good to hear, sounds like both you and mousey have this cat thing figured out !! Myself, I love dogs...but never in my wildest thoughts could I imagine having 12 of them living inside with me, even 12 small one's...lol
 
Treeless in Ontario

I don't think I'll be getting up the tree yet again this year. My health just doesn't permit it, but the outdoor lights are still up from two years ago, and are now plugged it. Pretty lights will adorn my living room window come December 1st.

I just love that Mountain Dew tree. My favourite beer, James Ready 5.5 comes in a red and green can...hmmm, wanna come to a BYOB party and leave me the empties?

Did I mention I also have 2 dogs, a rabbit, a cockatoo and 3 cockatiels, LOL
Cats are so different than dogs, a majority of the day they sleep, you don't even know they exist, it's at night when they all come alive :eek:

If you click the "play" button in the middle of Winbig's link, it will play. If you double click, it will open a separate window and play, but then you are in youtube and there are related videos to watch...and each one you watch has it's own related videos. Or you can use the search engine to search for other stuff.
 
Yes........my wife put it up last week.It's not a real tree as in from the woods but it nice.This one comes with the lights attached so it quick and easy to put up.I'm thinking I should open all my gifts too.........:lolup:
 
Grandmaster, I get where you are coming from. My ex was Scottish (would vehamently deny being Britsh) and we did not put up the tree until Xmas eve.

We had a room that was the library...just carried the tree intact and brought it out again next year.
 
Are you kidding?

So you don't give yourself time to enjoy it before Christmas comes? :(

When do you take it down?

it's gm. look at the avatar, he clearly rocks it old school.

:thumbsup:

i have a mini christmas tree tucked away somewhere, i am about to go digging through that storage room soon. my outside roof lights have fallen into the eaves and i don't feel like going up and fishing them out, too dangerous. hopefully i'll uncover a few decorations to spruce up the place though. and in my family the trees typically go up in the first half of december. christmas is great!

:thumbsup:
