I've lost it....


Stress has got the better of me tonight. Between Poppy taking the baubles off the tree to throw for Merlin, Merlin climbing the tree and Bess chewing the fur cones on it...I have lost my rag and all the decs, the lights and the tree are in the boot as we speak ready for the tip in the morning.


Christmas is cancelled this year

Oh dear. It sounds like a bad day in Wales!! Hopefully tomorrow once you've calmed down the tree etc will come out of the boot. But I sympathise. We tried decorating the tree today and as fast as we put baubles on Sebi removed them!!! Only one baubloe casuality - sadly one of my old favourites.

Re: I've lost it....


Maybe you could get a smaller fibre-optic tree that you could put up higher?
Sorry you're having such a stressful time, sending hugs. xx

Re: I've lost it....


Half of the berries and cones are missing/broken and as the tree was from floor to ceiling in height I cant put it anywhere out of reach.

Christmas just isnt going to be a happy time this year for us so will leave the decs to a bare minimun. I do have outside lights though so the neighbours wont think im barking lol

Very sorry Matron - sounds as if it is beyond redemption, the tree that is. Sometimes it is better to remove the item that is causing friction. I am sure however that you will feel better in the morning.

Sorry Matron - sounds as if it is just the last straw in your stressful life just now.

Maybe things will seem a bit better tomorrow.
