    I could be talked into going either way with Christmas decoration timing really. I love Christmas (not commercialized christmas, but actual Christmas), so I don't mind people starting early. We've got some family traditions of getting the tree the Saturday after thanksgiving so I'm consistent with letting thanksgiving shine before I decorate for Christmas.

    This year gonna be interesting though. I've got a very wild kitten who we brought in that may or may not be a tree climber. I'm a little scared. :rofl:I had a tree climber kitty once. Luckily, he was small enough that he never knocked it over, but getting him out was :annoyed::goingcrazy::facepalm::help::bucket::rolleyes:

    Well now that you mentioned it. We pronounce it mallie kinda like (Sallie), but according to the urban Dictionary it's pronounced mall- ee like we're going to the mall for Christmas shopping.:rofl::rofl:

    It could also cut up their intestines, so be careful.
    Dental floss and thread is funny though.:cool::D

    My back tire on my Honda was leaking, put it in a tub of water yesterday and found the leak. It was in the sidewall beside the "R" where the size is. I told Cole I hate to plug it but I'm gonna try it, when I pushed the plug in it ripped the whole 1 ply toilet paper side wall :annoyed:


    I just carried it and the one that matches it (dry rotted) to get replaced, who knew it was so difficult to get 14" tires now. They finally found some. Next time I'll order them and take them with me :D

    That's what I told Cole, it was actually a blessing I found it that way instead of going around one of those mountain curves.
