Danger

This is our 2nd year having an artificial Christmas tree.  (Or as my family calls it:  FAKE.  Say that with contempt and disdain and all things negative.)

I have loved it.  Not worrying about the water, the falling needles, having to take it down Christmas night or the day after because of safety.

Now I have discovered the danger of having an artificial tree:  keeping it up!  All of Christmas is down now except the tree.  I just don't want to gear up to tackle the job.  I tell myself everyday that today is the day.  And then I get into something else and talk myself out of it. 

I am still enjoying it's 'glow' of minilights.  I'm a sucker for those.
