That tree is more pathetic than the tree from the Charlie Brown Christmas special.

A small tree is better— you can put it on a tall table, the better to fit loot under: and isn’t that the True Meaning of Christmas?
(My nieces are tired of me trotting out the pictures of my Christmases past— where we got packages of socks and underwear to bulk up the present count, and didn’t know any different, and were happy). Last night the lady in front of us in T’R’U had a full carriage, and spent over $400!

The horror, the horror!!
Lots of Xmas tree jokes today. (That’s right, I said “Xmas”.) And speaking of Charlie Brown, be sure to see “Cow and Boy” today.

There seems to be more room inside the car, if people can fit inside it.

I have an artificial one in 3 pieces but mostly way too heavy and difficult to find the correct connections for the lights on each. It is definately not worth the bother to set it up and decorate just for myself. I set up 4 simple lighted displays this year (inside) and a few simple outdoor ones. That’s plenty to show my good will to neighbors who are tho only ones other than I to see them.

Yes, Steverino – kids don’t even appreciate the toys that they get. They are allowed to just tear through all the packages of everything they wanted and then sit asking “is that all?” I don’t remember a year when I received more than one toy, and the clothes were just the normal underwear and PJs that were what we got new. My dressier clothes were from a resale shop and I got to help chose those during the year.
