The Silly Season in almost upon us - show us your Xmas Tree

Hi Linder 

 

The way most of us seem to do it is to upload the photos you want to share to photobucket. It's free and quite easy to set up an account there.

 

Once you've created a photobucket account Penny has given instructions on reply 92 of this thread. If you follow those you should be able to post your pictures.

 

Penny seems to be the expert on posting pictures, I'm still a novice.

 

I hope this helps,

 

Debbie

Incredible!

Wow Hoosier - What a fantastic array of trees!

 

Love them all, but your main one is perfect.  Hmmm and here I am thinking I am the only person with a couple of trees, you rule, I concede

 

Thanks for showing us!

Most excellent, Hoosier. And all of that done while in withdrawals.

 

I say, sugar cookies be damned!

Debbie, Carol, Staffy and Penny,

 

Oh my gosh, you guys are so sweet.  I read your posts yesterday morning and it reminded me of one of the great lessons of being ill -- look from the bottom up (what we can do) instead of the top down (what we used to be able to do, and now can't).  I am so heartened by all of you!!!

 

And Penny, so many thanks for the "award" -- I'm printing this out and putting it in my inspiration journal!!!  And yes, sugar cookies (and birthday waffles) be damned!!!  We'll get back to those eventually, but for now, I'm just so grateful (esp. given yesterday's events) that we have our little ones at all. 

 

Much love to you girls.  Again, thanks for the compliments and the good wishes.  ((Hugs)) girls!!!!

Hoosier,

 

I feel honored to have been able to contribute something that will go into your inspiration journal. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. 

 

I'm so proud of you! I just wanted you to know that.

Hoosier,

 

You deserved that great award and the accolades, you really did a fantastic job with all of the trees.  Like you said, look from the bottom up - what an accomplishment you made, and all the while when in w/d. 

 

I love it when we all raise each up, rather than tearing one another down.

 

I started nagging hubby for a new fibre optic tree (which would be our 3rd tree), after showing him your trees.  He laughed and said 'wow' she sure does love Xmas Trees'.

When i read the words on your last post that i had written as advice while back it made me feel good.

you know how much gets said over and over and somehow it seems like it is all for nothing.

When it actually helps in some way it is gratifying.

 

" -- look from the bottom up (what we can do) instead of the top down (what we used to be able to do, and now can't).   "

 

I have truly found this to be my best defence and I am happy to have it passes on.

Ok

 

Back to Christmas trees:)
