Christmas Vomit

What’s that you ask? Did Christmas throw up in that house? Why, yes. Yes, it did. Welcome to Christmas Explosion 2009.

Highlights:

• I’m just not certain that we have enough ornaments, decorations, lights, candles, bows and other random seasonal crap in our attic.
• I’m out of box-lugging shape. My hamstrings are tighter than Regis Philbun’s face.
• CJ is overcome with the Christmas spirit. Fish are festive. It’s a fact. And they adore a hint of holiday color. Look it up.
• There may not be guns, but tree hunting is dangerous. If you fall/ jump into the cinder block stalls holding trees while doing an Elf reenactment it is a definite possibility that you will puncture your ass. Just sayin.
• Do not take pictures of Lowes merchandise. They don’t really like it. And they don’t appreciate a lively debate of whether or not a living tree can be considered merchandise.
• It’s not necessary that you obey all rules at the tree purchasing retailer. They’re more like suggestions anyhow.

It’s a lot of work to decorate for the holidays, but it’s totally worth it. Tis the season, after all.

Sincerely,

Sally B.
