    Default Anybody's tree still standing?

    I didn't even want a Christmas tree this year, but I'm so glad I did get one (4 1/2' artificial) because it really helped me. I have it on every morning and every evening and I'll tell you, I don't want to take it down, even though I probably will on Sunday.

    Ruth, I have both of mine still standing. I have a four foot Alpine in my wicker room and a 6 ft Alpine in the family room/kitchen. I am leaving them up through January. I am really enjoying them, especially the one in the family room. Our family room is like a lodge room with the big fireplace and beamed ceilings, pine floors etc. The tree with its white sparkling lights and cute gold wood stars and red minature mittens, just adds to the lodge feeling.

    Ours came down Tuesday. Space is at a commodity here & I'm so glad to have my livingroom back.
    Ruth & Lynn, glad you are still enjoying your trees.

    I'm not sure when ours will come down....not before jan. 2nd...my inlaws are coming for supper with Pierre's brother. I may leave it a week or two more...this year, it's really not taking up space in our living room, the way we arranged it. I'll see...
