It's still not here :( no update on shipping since Sunday.

Amazon refunded me so I ordered a different one from a different company that should now be here on Wednesday again but I just want to decorate!

Are your trees up yet?

I don't think we'll be getting a tree this year. Next year if we get one we'll do it immediately after Thanksgiving.

I'm assuming your tree is fake? We should go that route

No tree? That's crazy! Are you decorating at all? Yeah I always do a fake tree. My cat broke my other one last year so I had to get a new one.

Oooh that's fun. Do you do a color scheme or just anything goes?

We just have some strings of white lights and a slowly growing collection of ornaments. My wife has some cool old Polish or Czech ones from her birth mother and we made a star out of construction paper yesterday since the boy wanted one. Im too busy in October to put up lights outside when its still warmish out so we just do the tree so no color scheme.

I have never decorated in my entire adult life, and I am almost 40 and lived on my own since my early 20s. I just don't care enough about the holidays to decorate.

I don't decorate outside but I love having a tree for some reason. It's just so pretty.

That's neat! We used to do just anything goes tree when I was little then my mom decided she wanted to be Martha Stewart and bought new color coordinated ornaments every year. Different ones. Idk why. It must have been expensive.

I can't recall the last time I had a Christmas tree or decorations up. Only me and my dad live in this house and neither of us are really bothered so it seems a waste of time with decorations and a tree.

We are probably not putting a tree up this year. Four cats and a dog plus laziness

I can't wait to decorate. All the lights! Despite selling real trees for 20 years we've used artificial because of the wood stove. Luckily the cats don't bother it.

Tips. Don't get prelit or flocking. The lights don't last and the flocking falls off faster than needles from a real tree.

I have been concerned about my prelit trees. My two biggest ones are prelit. One is 12 years old and one is three years old. The oldest tree still looks good but I always feel I am on borrowed time with when the lights won't turn on again.

12? They have to be LED's. Never heard of standard lights lasting that long, nevermind on a prelit. This one barely lasted a season and they were a nightmare to pull off because it was all twisted into the branches.

Yeah both of them are LED. When I first got the older one I checked to see how easy it would be to take off but like you said they are well twisted in there.

I wont be decorating. I never do. Ever since Ive lived away from family, that is. Well, once, my old roommate got a tiny tree. But my current roommate and I probably wont. Not to mention, two dogs & a cat who all like to destroy things. And would mess with it constantly. And try to pull it down...

I never put a tree up in my apartments because I always spend the holidays at my parents'. Their trees are beautiful though!

The wife and I put up our first tree together since we have got married in 2012. We don't have kids and have cats and dogs, and usually go to relatives for the actual holiday. Wife wanted one this year though, so we got a black artificial tree. We put it up a few days after Thanksgiving, it looks pretty nice.

Cats have not messed with it as much as I thought they would, lately they have been batting at some of the balls on the lower part of the tree and one of them threw up on the tree skirt.

Black tree? I've never seen one of those.

My cat throws up on the tree skirts all the time. The main tree we are using a tree collar for the first time this year. That tree has a step on push button for the lights that my cat knows how to and does turn on. She likes turning it on and laying underneath the tree.
