Mike

awww i love my printable ordinment. how thoughtful. thanks

Jarrad,

That's a beautiful tree. Good job!

David, you and I had the same idea but I don't know where to find printable ornaments. I'll have to work on that.

ROCK ON.........Trish

Maybe you should call it an "adornment"!

I wish we could all gather together to decorate a tree and share in some hot chocolate.

I'll bring tons of marshmallows! A little bonfire would be nice too.

Nice TREE

Now you need to go buy yourself some presents. You do have more Christmas Holiday Cheer than me. Good for you.. Must say that this year I can't wait for the Holidays to be over and done. No celebrating for me this year. I'm up to my ears in crap going on in my life. One thing for sure though, things can only get better.

Ken

oh im up to my ears in crap too. but my tree makes smile so its worth it.

J,

Did you know that you are over your PM limit? Well, buddy, you ARE...

That sucks... Why is there a limit on the number of PM's a user can have??? I'll have to speak to the mods about this. Who knows how many personal (and undoubtedly important) messages I must be missing... ;-)

Yours truly,

Ric

nope. didnt know that. ill clean house. thanks.

Hi Jarrad,
Hope you are enjoying your tree. you going to post a pic after you get it fully decorated?
don't forget the water I think there is also some stuff you can add to the water to help make it last longer just google Live Christmas tree care and I'm sure you'll get more than enough info.
Tree fires are the most common cause of fires this time of year because people forget to water them and they dry out.
peace
Rick
PS: maybe we should start a thread for our favorite decorations or something festive for everyone this season.

gate haha yeah i dont have any other decorations. so its done. i enjoy it even if its bald. and yep. im watering it. (trust me, everyone is reminding me of that.) haha and i added sugar to the water which makes the sap stickier with keeps the needles on longer. so im good. phew.

Watch out for that sugar water, it tends to go bad and then it smells like someone barfed under your tree.

Jarrad, it's been a long time since I had a live tree, but they sure smell good. A botanist I once knew said the best things to add to the water are 1. a tsp of bleach (it opens the pores and allows more water to soak in), and 2. a couple of asprin tablets. He wasn't too clear on why the aspirin help, but it seems to me that it might at least make the tree feel better about having it's feet cut off... LOL

Ho Ho Ho (to quote Don Imus...)

Ric

I bet the house smells wonderful. I love a live tree at christmas

haha well i only put in a little sugar so it wont be enough to make barf i hope haha. but if i smell it, i know what it is.

yeah asprin is weird. i'll stick with the barfy sugar

Jarrad,

What a nice tree. Thanks for posting the pic and I hope it gives you a lot of joy over the holidays. You already have a printable ornament from me on the "Mysterious Skin" thread.

Much love,
Larry

Why not get a small artificial tree for in your room, or a live one in a pot? That and a string of lights ought not to cost too much, and I bet it would really brighten up your room - and your holidays.

Much love,
Larry

after 7 years of no christmas tree

I have a norfolk pine inside decorated
and white pine I planted with my spouce
we will put lights on it some time after Thanksgiving

I love this place and hot chocolate is at my house waiting
