Finally got some ornaments on the tree. The lights have been on for weeks. I've been so busy baking and organizing that I haven't had time to decorate the tree. That and I wasn't sure what I wanted to put on it. I've got the Woodland tree on the front porch, the Candy tree in the dining room. Last year I did glass balls. I've been taking advantage of the nice weather to get up in my attic and sort and organize and convert all the cardboard boxes to plastic bins. I realized that I have three boxes of Hallmark ornaments. I've been collecting them since the 1980's starting with yarn dolls of Raggedy Ann and Andy. Some things I have complete sets. Others I'm missing a piece or two. About 5 years ago, I only bought pieces that I really absolutely loved like the Nutcracker Barbie. And Snoopy. I like to buy first in series also. I have some sports figures thinking that they'd be worth money someday. I checked Ebay. They're not worth more than I'd paid for them. So I decided that it was ridiculous to keep them in boxes in the attic and I decided to put them to use this year.
This year is not my best tree but I'm not all that broken up about it.
