We just like to ease into things. Round these here parts we use Fahrenheit. Not that fancy Celsius stuff. I contributed $10 a while back and I'm waiting for my thumbs up too if that makes you feel any better. 😁 You're not alone. Not a big deal. I'm glad to have contributed regardless. Yes Christmas lights used to be the single most difficult part of Christmas decorating. Whoever came up with the idea of pre-lit trees had one of the best ideas in history. That's nice that you have a Christmas tree decorated with items that belonged to your grandmother. I think if it weren't for the fact that my boys come home for the holidays there might be years I did not put up a tree. My favorite part of Christmas decorating is the mantle and hanging up the stockings. My parents have one of those multicolored light sets with a box on the cord that can control different patterns, too. Their lights can also play music. 🎢 I'm sorry. 😞 I understand. Ok thanks! I've texted this to him so he'll have it to refer to. I think that makes you exempt from toilet paper judgement. 😁 I do, but she is the textbook definition of a scardey-cat. She'd probably jump and run as soon as the paper started rolling. πŸ˜‚ That sounds very nice, and also nice that y'all still have that connection. πŸŽ„πŸ’š I was hoping to hear from you. πŸ™‚ Here is his response: "I have at least 4 movies of his on my watchlist, including Requiem for a Dream. Haven’t seen any of his work though." Sounds like he plans to watch it. 😊 Unfortunately, my kids inherited my attention span when it comes to tree decorating. πŸ˜‚ Beads and ribbons sound pretty. Maybe one day I'll get a little more inspired with my tree decorating. We do have four of the same Big Bird ornaments, though, that we've somehow amassed over the years. We're classy over here in fourlemons land. πŸ˜‚ And one of each kind of tree sounds nice. The best of both worlds. 😊 Good point about tinsel and cats. We have a cat and she might find it far too interesting if we used it. Plus tinsel on an artificial tree just doesn't seem like a great idea. You'd have to take it back off every year or leave it there and let it get all crumpled up and neither option sounds great. Yes! My family ate a lot of Stovetop stuffing growing up, even when it wasn't Thanksgiving. I do love me some wet, spiced bread. πŸ˜‚ πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ€£ Thanks for your response! I'll pass this along to my son. Both of my sons have really gotten into learning about and watching movies as a hobby over the past couple of years. I will say though, that I would be much more forgiving of someone using the word dressing than hanging the toilet paper under. Hanging the toilet paper under is grounds for some sort of mental health assessment. One nice thing about having a real tree is how good it makes the house smell. You are lucky to be able to enjoy that. I've been under the impression that if it's stuffed inside the turkey it's called stuffing and if it's served separately it's called dressing, but being the rebel that I am, I usually call it stuffing even though ours is a separate dish.
