OMG, our new tree is so much awesomer than the dinky little 5-foot tree that LL Bean gave us — it touches the ceiling. Score. Too bad I can’t find the ornaments or lights box. But never order trees from them. They say it’ll be 5 - 6 feet tall, but don’t tell you that includes the stand. Grr. So glad my dad got a new one.

Now I have to decide between making my way-overdue skydiving fanlisting, wrapping presents, or hunting for Christmas decorations. Hmm.
