Good Morning.

GF's townhouse complex (she's temp renting after selling her house) won't allow real Christmas trees. She's livid. She went out and purchased a fake tree. They're expensive. She's livid. Both me and her son told her to not waste her money on a fake-tree for one season, I even offered to loan her my small table-top version I used to use in an apartment way back when. No, not acceptable. She's livid. So the tree has been sitting in her car for a week, waiting for us to get mutual time to meet up and I can carry it in for her.

Going to have to do that today.

Did I say she's livid? Yes, yes I did.
I hope she did not get a "pre-lit" tree. If she's livid now, she'll be
even MORE livid when those lights start burning out, or a wire
breaks SOMEWHERE and it no longer illuminates... at all.

I think it IS pre-lit (and untested). Oh noes!

But, on the up side, it only has to work for ONE SEASON. (I anticipate).

So instead of paying 60-80 bucks for a real tree, she's paid like 200 or 300. And will probably rejoice in throwing the thing out (or most probably giving it to charity/good-will).

I'll be nice and NOT mention what you've said here to her. She just doesn't need that right now. ;)
But once we set it up, and if something doesn't work, I'm heading for the hills!

Tell Geoff "Hi" for us, and give him an apple-treat for us after he has his piggies trimmed! :D :)

P.S.
Where does he "move" to?
