Remember Angie's beautiful Christmas tree that she posted pictures of?
In the next post I'll show you what it looks like now...
...after a dog/cat/tree altercation awhile ago.

...and right now...at Angie's house...

Oh no!

Angie...I wish I was there to help you clean it up.

That's terrible...

I hope everyone, and everything, is ok... hopefully, she'll be able to get the tree up and ok soon...
Prayers to you, angie!

Yikes! I think I'd feel like giving up and throwing the tree outside at that point! Hang in there Angie!

Angie has some stitches in her leg...from some point of this disaster.

NOW you see why I don't put up a Christmas tree?
They are dangerous!

Oh Angie, what an awful mess. I am so sad thinking of how sad you are sitting there having to deal with all of that. Wish I could help with the clean up as well.

Stitches??? Was she under the tree when it fell? Oh dear.

I am sooo sorry Angie!! Where are the guys tonight?

I hope most everything can be saved for you..

How Terrible!

Oh man, stitches? I hate hearing that, and seeing that mess....

Angie, I am sooo sorry to see this! I guess the dog/cat didn't appreciate the hard work you did in putting up the tree...

How in the world did you end up with stitches? I hope you are doing better when you read this and are able to make the best of the sad situation...

Hugs and prayers for you...

Cindy...Thanks for the talk, on the phone;-)
It is still like that, tried several times to pick up...;-(TO HEAVY...wait till guys are home

Just so sad that so many ornaments broke...I would not care , if they were store bought,but several are broke nick made;-(
Also feel bad my poor animals are looking at me like sorry mom...I know they did not mean it;-)

Thanks, My Pal;-) for the ear and the thoughts!
But it is just a tree,and I have so much more to be happy for.....but at this moment....I am Ticked;-)

I know...just dog and cat doing dog/cat things...

I would be as well Angie. When are the guys home and how did you get hurt enough to need stitches?

They are gonna have a surprise when they DO get home!

Bud is home...Tree is up and anchored...not decorated yet...maybe in am I will feel like
it:-)
Thanks my garden pals;-) It will be all good,only a tree...Sure it is a loss w/ornaments...but if that is the worst for me this year, I am lucky!

Thanks all, and cindy;-) I wish I could blame you! but you are a good pal;-)oh and stitches...it is all good...lol<-

Angie, maybe this site or this one will help you with the cat. I haven't spotted one for the dog yet...

Orange peels sounded interesting and very do-able to me...

Dianna

Thanks:-) will check it out dianna,still up...so I will check it out;) Thanks

Angie.....As always, you have a way of handling life's hurdles with such grace.

If I could only learn just a fraction of that......

Hmmmmmmm.......do you give lessons?

Oh, Angie!! I am so sorry to see the tree down, but glad that all is mostly OK- Like Mater said- you handle things with much grace and that is such a pleasure to see.... **hugs**

Good that you have it anchored now.
You OK??
I'm sending a cyber broom, dustpan, bandaid, and glue for broken ornaments.

Angie,

SO sorry of the tree and the leg too..Real trees are hard to setup, and deco.. that is why I gave up after all these years of trying.
I bought a fake ready decorated one and had it 3 years now.
Chenno..do you have yours tied in back ? We always did that .

Think good thoughts Angie,, like your seedy friends here will make spring brighter.
Lotza Love,
Dodge

Angie, so sorry about the tree & the stitches! But at least you are ok, and the tree back to its corner. I love how animals say they are sorry when they booboo, it is SO cute!

Thanks again...it is up and all is well! The only thing that is wrong is I had a few to many feel sorry for myself cocktails :rolleyes: so I feel like my tree looked last night..A mess;-)

Thanks all of you! Man, it is so nice to have you all to talk and vent with..I have learned so much here about my garden and friendships have bloomed..
Thanks

Ain't this place the BEST?
Glad I'm one of your friends, Angie!


Well, because I am your friend, I felt so bad for you last night I had a few my own bad self.

Wow! I'm sorry they did that! My cat's knocked mine down one year but I just put it back up, I guess I just lucked up that time! I hope they stay away from the tree now!!!!

"Ain't this place the BEST?
Glad I'm one of your friends, Angie! "

Yes it is Cindy:-) and I am very glad you are too!

Angie - I'm sorry that I'm responding so late to this thread - been running around like a chicken without a head, and popping in here for only a few minutes at a time.

Anywho... I'm SO VERY GLAD that you are OK!

Oh no Angie.....so sorry to hear this

Angie, that is so sad!! I remember when my first-born crawled under the tree and then stood up; the same mess happened!! Hope everything is taken care of by now!!!

Lynee,Penny and Shirley..Thanks:-) It is all good now:-) a breif moment of insanity.like we all have:-)But It is fine and material things are easily replaced:-)Thanks again for the kindness:-)

Glad to hear that Angie.....this time of the year is enough to make the sanest person INSANE isnt it

Yes indeed Penny:-)
