I’ve posted pictures of my Christmas tree over the years. It’s 14 feet tall and plastic. My daughter, Vanessa, persuaded me to stop using real trees about a decade ago and I must admit plastic ones are easier cause the lights are already attached (but I add some red heart-shaped lights). It’s also easy to put up but the decorating part takes 2 days each way…2 days to put up and 2 days to take down and this Holiday I’ll be on my own to do it…with a very tall ladder.
Still, I’m going to do it. I decided today. I’ll start the day after Thanksgiving. I mean, if I’m going to do it I might as well have it up a full month.
My squirrel can see the tree through the window. She’s quite fat now. We’re talking liposuction fat. Should I stop feeding her? There are squirrel experts among you that’s why I’m asking. BTW, when I’m late putting peanuts (in their shells) in her feeder, she comes onto my porch and looks through the window for me.
Most of my time these days is spent writing climate articles and my opening for our weekly virtual Fire Drill Fridays and reading. I read about a book a week. I stop everything around 6pm, watch the Rachel Maddow show and then scroll around for shows to watch. I’ve pretty much scraped the bottom of the barrel watching things I never thought I’d see. I won’t name names. But last night, the new season of “The Crown” started and it’s really good. Also, a multi-parter on Showtime about Ronald Reagan which tells the real story of his rise and the effect he had on American politics. Finally the truth!
I'm sure there's a lot of her family history hanging on that beautiful tree, with tons of memories.
Not religious any more but I do miss those days long ago when my wife (RIP) and both kids were little and the annual ritual of getting all the decorations from our attic, and the days of fun watching it all come together. Some days, getting old just sucks.

I mean, instead of paying someone else to do it.
Personally, I wouldn't have put on that mushroom decoration. Thanks to the description of something given by Stormy Daniels, I can hardly stand to look at mushrooms anymore. 
I'm guessing she doesn't have a cat or a dog?? 
Happy holidays, Rhiannon!........

we've had it for years - it has grown quite large

You could not have bought any better therapy! I think that's why Jane did hers.
Plus, the children in your area get to enjoy it. They'll see it as beautiful, not tacky!

Great post! Thank you....I love Jane Fonda. .....Very cool that she said she stops everything at 6:00 p.m. to watch Rachel!
Tons of history hanging from that tree, some of which I bet she inherited from her mom and dad!
