This year I'm fully commited to the idea of having a Christmas tree.
Since Scott and I have been together we've never bothered doing anything out of the way for Christmas. Most of that was because we didn't have anywhere to put a tree. Well, now that the living room is presentable and there's a big space for a tree, I've started buying ornaments.
You've all heard about the UNC Santa I bought some time back. That was my very first ornament purchase.
Well, I went into Hallmark last week for...something or other, a card I think, and came out with four Star Wars ornaments, and one "I Love Lucy" ornament for myself.
$120 for six ornaments. Hmm. I guess the rest will be tacky glass balls until next year.

I've got a whole box full of ornaments, and every year I tell myself I'm gonna get one of those short little trees and put the ornaments on, but I've never done it. I should have my own place this year. Maybe this time I'll actually do it.
I hate the putting it up and decorating it and taking it down and undecorating it, but it really is nice while it's up.

They also whack the glass balls until they break.
We have few breakable ornaments left.
