No, I don't get Black Friday off but I'll I'll probably take it off anyway. There's a Black Friday Brunch at a cigar shop(not the one I go to now but one to which used to go). You can smoke cigars and eat egg, bacon, sausages and cheese breakfast sandwiches made to order.

I got out my Christmas tree this morning. It's up and plugged in, I haven't fluffed it yet. I got it from King of Christmas a few years ago. It's flocked and is the nicest tree I've ever owned. I don't decorate it heavily and most people probably wouldn't care for it because there is no color on it. I usually only put glass icicles & glass snowflakes on it, but this year I'm putting black velvet bows on it too. I hope it looks like it does in my head, but things don't always work out the way I'd like them to.

Should I put my Christmas tree up too? To bring the Spirit of Christmas into your home you have to work at it and make it happen. I really want to have a wonderful Christmas.

Yes! Dooooo ittttt.

I'm doing more decorating today. I want to do my mantle but I'm waffling on what I want up there.

It's up, but not decorated yet.  We bought a 3 foot prelit  tree a few years back that fits perfectly in our bay window.   I completely culled down most of the Christmas stuff, went from 20 totes down to 2.

I want a Dyson for Christmas.

I won't put one up until I get back from Thanksgiving. I will purchase a permit from the forest service for $15 and go out and find one.
I got lucky last year and found one that was recently downed and easy to get to. Not sure where I will look this year. I want it to be in walking distance from my house.
I do have a cute little fake tree in my storage.

This is perfect! Can you film it? I know that's a lot to ask.  50

Sure! I will do my best.
I took some pics from last year-don't recall if I did video or not. It was easier in the snow, if there is no snow this year I don't know what I'll do.

ALSO
I am ready to just be in a box until Jan 1 and pass up All of the holidays.

I will never figure out a way to get around them in peace and or w/out pissing somebody off. Obviously living in the fucking mountains isn't enough I still have to deal with drama.
Okay rant over.

I actually enjoyed Christmas last year-because I didn't have to listen to endless music in stores from Halloween on and I wasn't inundated with commercials and radio songs-it was just a peaceful little life in the woods.
