well, not Christmas! We put our tree up a week ago, before Thanksgiving as we usually do. First the lights on top didn't work. So before putting all the ornaments on, I started searching for more lights. Couldn't find any that blinked the way the bottom half of the tree lights blinkety blinked. Sigh. Finally found some. But then my son and I came down with a virus. As the laundry piles up and I fall further behind with my writing and line edits, it could be New Years before I get around to decorating the tree. Bah humbug! (which is sooooo not like me!) Think it would be bad to have the tree up at Easter? Or maybe through the 4th of July?
