| Gordon -wasn't that the tree in A Charlie Brown Christmas? Here's my tree for right now. A Target special, $19.99, sits nicely on the kitchen table. Will take pix of the other one later. |

| LC,
You have to be English--yellow walls? Dead give away! Your windows are telling also. |

| Dear Alice, What a marvel your Dave must be at wood. A person connects with wood, feels it. I love all the drawers. Your home must be beautiful, as you are. I thought of you this day as I perused the Kincaid puzzles. I love puzzles. They simplify the mental processes to shapes and curves and colors. The aboriginal brain. That is what I have. Basic mental. I went off today to look for presents. I was out for 6 hours and bought 3 presents that I would like to get my own self. One I did buy for my own self. I love small, small perfume bottles. I bought one for 5.00. Love, Betty |

| Joe,
Thank you for liking it. I will never sell it. It is my prize possession. Betty, Good going! I am glad about the perfume bottle. The table doesn't have drawers. Those "knobs" are screw covers. Hope you still like it. |

| Great photos, everyone! This is shaping up to be our Decorations thread. Alice, my late FIL did woodworking, too, we have a desk and some small things made by him. Good, solid stuff. There's a large woodworking shed in my IL's yard, stocked with expensive equipment. He hardly used it, but he liked to buy and look at it. And drink beer in it with a neighbor, lol. |

| Here's a closeup of my tree. I've been collecting ornaments for over 20 years. Every vacation we go on, we look for an ornament. I have wood ones from Germany, Radko, Lenox, Waterford, Hallmark Light & Motion, trinkets from St. Thomas, Disney, Cancun, Rome, Arizona, Hawaii... |

| I love all the trees!!!
We now have three decorations: the basket for Christmas cards, the Advent calendar where each day a new toy is velcroed to the tree on it, and a wreath my grandson gave me last year with two little snowman dressed in Green Bay Packer shirts and hats.

| I just noticed a nutcracker has also appeared in the hallway. I think it is Santa's elves seeing the need for some decorating around here.
