The Christmas Tree Has Rigor Mortis. It's Sooooooooooo Dry....

[KittyWampus]

when I take the ornaments off the tips break right off.

I have to snap off entire branches to get to the ornaments inside the tree.

How will I EVER get this thing out of the house without losing all the needles between where the tree is now and the front door?

Should I just forget about taking off the lights...

Oh God, the lights. :wow:

1. Go to Lowes/Home Depot and get a clear Painters Tarp

,..cost= 4.00
Put around entire tree and take outside.
Some folks even wait to take off the ornaments until the thing is outside.

2. Or save yourself the trip and the $ and use a bedsheet. EOM

3. But Of Course! Such Sound, Sensible Anwsers!

4. That reminds me--we have a video screen in my office bldg's elevator

It flashes news headlines, stock updates, New Yorker cartoons--and a word-of-the-day. Yesterday, the word was "ecru," and the example they gave was "when the Christmas tree turns ecru, it's time to throw it out." I cracked up.
