I have considered putting it up in the listening room.

 



I should also mentioned the "needles" on this one are "curly" not straight.



Apparently that is very important according to Mom.snd after talking to her she would willing to sell it for the proverbial "right price".

Sent a note out to my friends that I was getting rid of mine (didn't want the cat eating the ancient tinsel - no telling what it was made out of).  They practically came to blows over it.  Who knew?  I had the original box and everything.  It was fabulous but I've decided that I am no longer keeping things for someday so since it wasn't being used now, it was gone.

the only reason I have all the stuff up that I do is because Mom has been stock piling Christmas decorations for over 40 years. Mom and Dad used to live in a beautiful large A frame. It took her over two weeks to decorate and when she was done it was like walking into Christmas Town. Every room ,including the bath rooms were decorated even had Christmas TP. Three full sized trees in the place, one of which.was one of those hideous aluminum thins with the color rotating spot lights. ( I one time made the mistake of asking her why she kept that ugly thing and turning on me like a banshee she said "that was your sister's favorite tree", my sister having passed away 8 years earlier). People would visit just to see the house. And the high point was the holiday party they hosted, did not want to miss that one.

 

What beautiful memories!

Yes, my tree is browning on the tips.  And yes it is SLIGHTLY leaning.
And, perhaps, the decor is a little....lacking.  But it is up.  So go me.

Me too.

Besides that's all mom wants and since there's only one or two presents under it, sad but OK with us, that's all we need.

{#Lol}  Moms are great.  Mine is both my biggest supporter, believing in her heart of hearts that I am the most brilliant, charming, beautiful creature to ever walk this earth, and at the same time utterly appalled that I walked out of the house without ironing my shirt.

I stuck it in a corner and only decorated the 1/3 that faces out.  Mostly because I had a single 3 foot garland.  {#Lol}
