*My cats are fighting more than normal lately. I wonder if ingesting pine tree sap would have anything to do with that. Maybe it’s a natural, homeopathic mood enhancer. I’ll drink some Christmas tree water and let you know.
*We put up our Christmas decorations the other day. I only have four boxes so when I say we decorated I mean we set out a manger scene and put some ornaments on the tree. Who needs more when you have a roving toddler? And when you have to move all that crap beautiful symbols of Christmas cheer every couple of years? In fact, the tree is only decorated down to about toddler height… And there probably won’t be presents under it until about five minutes before opening time…
*I need to start making lists again. The Type A part of me is trying desperately to regain control and I’m feeling like I should let her. Who wants to succumb to inefficiency right before Christmas?
*Get your best post of this week submitted to me (click the button below)! The community over at Best Posts Of The Week is really growing and seems to be solidifying. I’m so grateful to everyone who submits posts week after week. We’ll see if I can’t get the site running even better after the new year. Ideas?
Not So SAHM 
Love this post … I appreciate the short “stream of conciousness” aspect of it. And the mental images just made me smile … Have fun with your Christmas Tree Water!
I am impressed that you still have four boxes! I seem to lose a stocking or two every year, and my lights break, and my tree decorations have dwindled to hardly anything. I’m not bah hum bug, but I can barely keep the house clean for a couple days, let a lone decorate and keep it looking nice instead of cluttered.
Great post!
I’m dying aobut the drinking Christmas tree water part. Your humor hits me just right! 🙂
I dunno. Drinking that tree water might make you ready to rumble!
Du will come home to find you, quite literally, in the middle of a cat fight!
Oooh… would love to see a pic of toddler and the tree! Bet it’s adorable!
OK… I’m loving how you’re tagging your posts! Yep, I’m a list person…can’t get through a day without one. Got a list for everything!
hugs, Jami
I have a lot of boxes and this year just sort of picked and chose what to pull out. I just didn’t have the energy to go all out!
Jason & Brittany’s cats have been fighting less that normal – but Pixie did knock over the tree. She likes to climb right up the middle. When will he lsiten to his mother and tie the tree the first day he puts it up?!
Pray for them -they are expecting a baby in July 🙂
I know what you mean about not having allot out and the tree only being decorated near the top..my 19 month old loves to take the bulbs right off the tree..knew I should have did what you did and put them all higher up! 🙂
