California Christmas....

I am so tired of the heat... I can't get in a Christmas tree kind of mood. I figure anything I get now won't last .. oh.. a week.

sooooo...

I fell in love, this year, with the absolute symbol of California Christmases Past... at least mine. I have spent more 80 degree Christmas days than not in my life, and, though it does make traveling the half mile to my sister's house a great deal easier, it SUCKS!... (not Christmasy at all.. nope... no.. not even a little bit... nope.. uh huh.. nope.. nada... nunca... zed.. )

Well, you get the idea.

With my huge discount, this cost me as much or less than a 'real tree', and it suits my mood this year just right. The only question is..

Snowflakes

or no Snowflakes.. ?





or should I add some tinsel and christmas bulbs??? (ha!)
