I'm very good at finding Charlie Brown Christmas trees. In fact, i seek them out. I figure they already chop these poor scraggly evergreens down, i might as well give them some lovin'. We've grown quite fond of a very cool, very CHEAP, Christmas tree place just entering Addison, called Towner Tree Farms. For the past three years, we've found our tree there, and each time, it's cost us $6.99. I mean, c'mon. Why pay $40+ for a tree that you are just going to put out on your curb in one month?! Well, that's my opinion.You might be wondering how Sam is with the tree. Or rather, the "tinkering with" and "curiosity for" the tree. Answer is, he's being very good. He is definitely intrigued and interested, but i've explained to him to be gentle and to just LOOK. So far, so good. Frankly, that's his demeanor, and we're lucky. I'm thankful. Even Beegs doesn't give a hoot about it, and Zap doesn't come downstairs, so... we're all set!
Hope everyone is all ready for Christmas, which is in a little over 10 days. I still have cookies to bake and a couple mailings to get out, but otherwise, i'm as ready as i ever am. I take a very laid back approach to this holiday, as in, i don't go nutzoid. Probably cuz i've never had the funds to do so. ;-)
