Title: Normally, I would put up my Christmas tree on Thanksgiving weekend.
Post by: Black Diamond Vol on November 13, 2020, 09:32:48 EST
...but since I'll be up in the 'Noog then, and I have guests next weekend, I'll be doing it tomorrow. Which means I'll be putting up my Christmas Tree...while watching The Masters.

Only in 2020. :dunno:

Hey Herb! you still doing well health wise? I hope so. I got tested for corona Friday. Waiting for the results. I'm not feeling bad though.

Herb, be happy your wife is still around to put up trees. My son died in 2004 and my wife died in 2015. I have put up a Christmas tree only twice since 2004 and that started 4 years ago. I just do not have much Christmas spirit.

I'm sorry '73. Much respect for pushing through a rough time of year.

Absolutely I am. 

Hang in there, my friend.

As resilient as I am, do not let anyone tell you therapy is a joke.
