Not yet, but soon, The plastic tree will now be on its 23rd outing, and the door wreath will be stuff from the garden.

lovely tree, I used to knock the decorations and lights off in a couple of hours, now it takes me over a week and I’ve still not finished, I get so exhausted😴

I need to keep replacing my baubles. Between my 3 year old and an 8 month old cav king charles I dont think it will survive 19 days.

My twin granddaughters were just that age last year. One morning I discovered empty foil wrappers from chocolate decorations hanging in the tree..

The culprit confessed over video message to - a round chocolate (bauble) and a golden teddy, then ‘sorry Grandma’. She was jumping on the bed throughout this video 😂

long ago when children were small and we had cats and a dog I stood the tree in the playpen to keep everything safe😸

No booze for me yet. Well, it will be non alcoholic anyway

this will be the third year I can’t put a tree up due to my husband work station being in the place the tree goes . Gutted

I’m having a wet room installed so I’ve been whisked away from my little bungalow in Norfolk to my sons house. This is his and his partner Marks tree. It has been in place since November 1st!!!! It’s like living in Santas grotto..😂 It’s a yearly ritual, every year on Nov1st. House decorated for Christmas, while listening to Christmas songs and a glass of Baileys. If all goes well with my Cardiologist appointment on Wednesday, I’ll be off to London to spend Christmas with my Sister, who is equally excited about Christmas decorations. Merry Christmas all.🎄🎅🏻⭐️❄️☃️

Don't feel like doing CHristmas this year. Son is away in the USA, only me and husband and I can't get out to see anyone or even go shopping. Husband will spend the day in another room watching TV so why bother. Haven't even written a card yet.

I'll cook a turkey but only because it's the only meat I Like. We might do Easter instead when son is back.
