A pine tree that you put in your house on Christmas hovering between life and death until your children open their presents and you throw the tree out. You then find pine needles all over the house for 6 months.

Did you require much help getting this fine specimen through your front door? I see that the sheer weight of this tree is causing some issues staying upright! It's very beautiful and well worth the effort :)
@adamj haha it's actually much bigger than it looks.....trick photography and all of that, but I did my best lumberjack/wilderness woman act and hey presto ;-) lol
@humphreyhippo I've been using an artificial tree for years....so much easier, but I do miss that real tree smell :-) @fpg thank you :-) @kerenmcsweeney I know...it's crazy......seems like it was Summer just a few weeks ago......hope you're having a lovely weekend Keren :-) @gailmmeek thank you Gail :-)
Noooo! It's too early!
It does look good though, the decorations remind me of little casserole pots :)
I bet you could bash something like this out of metal, in fact I bet you could make a whole treeful of ornaments to sell and then.........Aaron gets more prezzies ;)
@nicolecampbell thanks Nicole :-) @bluefirebucket it does feel way too early, but Aaron has gone to his dads, so I figured I'd drag the decorations in. I enjoy it, until I realise I've set up my tree wrong, and the lights aren't connected correctly, and a section won't light up.......it happens every year.........bah humbug ;-)
@bluefirebucket you're being too kind Mick....what's wrong with this picture ;-P I do have my Paxo stuffing at the ready.....one of the things I always stock up on when I go back home, along with Christmas pudding, and Birds Custard :-) @neakwagener sneezing wouldn't make for a fun Christmas.....it's good you've got an artificial one :-)
