The Tree From Hell!

I'll be the first to admit my 'bah-humbug' attitude this season. But do I have to pay SO dearly for my efforts? I have worked on getting my Christmas tree up for 2 days. I'm by myself with Mason. Josh is out of town for work and I really wanted Mason to have festive directions, even though I wasn't feeling giddy about doing it. I went through numerous strands of lights, threw out 5, and had to buy 2 more at Big Lots today. After FINALLY getting the tree to my level of happiness, my fat ass cat got out from underneath it (she likes to lay on the tree skirt) and threw the base off balance. The whole tree toppled, breaking the base! The tree is now in the garage, awaiting a new base. I am vacuuming glass at 10:30pm!
This being the case, I have alerted Josh that not only am I buying a pre-lit Christmas tree, but I am buying a NICE one. No more of this cheap crap. Please enjoy these photos, at my expense. I will join you in laughing...someday!
