Hello Jan. It has been a while since I have been here, but I see that you haven't lost a step, but maybe a tree. Keep up the great writing as you also must keep an eye out for that tinsel hater. Hugs for the Holidays! Dan

- Reminded me of: I (as a nurse) was on a home visit to a patient in the summer ... the Christmas tree was still in the living room ... with decorations but without a single needle ... a sad sight :))) - (many years ago) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)

I love pine trees in the forest, sparkling with snow flakes as the wind sings through their branches . . . .. Merry Christmas! Aloha! Rico

Hi Jan, I only put a small tree up this year, because we have moved from our big house and this is a small cottage, but it sparkles when i decorate it with its last ornament, a piece of tinsel winding around it! Awesome Limerick. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Lots of ways to decorate tree so no need to kill the joy. Imagine you have seen lots of examples as I have, part of the fun to make individual statements Another great write. Have a great Christmas on the Isle that does things their way.

A Christmas tree without any tinsel, To me would appear barren and dismal. We need to rekindle, The seasonal twinkle, Tinsel's cheaper than diamonds or Chrystal.
