You're as cuddly as a cactus, you're as charming as an eel

Moving right after Thanksgiving kind of took the Christmas spirit out of me.  I didn't want to do any Black Friday shopping because I didn't want to have to move anything I bought.  I didn't really do any holiday knitting last month, because it was all packed.  And then, once I got in my new place and unpacked, the last thing I wanted to do was unpack my Christmas stuff and decorate.

Bah Humbug to you too.

So, I decided to stop being Scrooge McScrooge (extra emphasis on my Scrooge levels there) and I bought a tree on my way home today.  I still can't buy a big tree because I have a moronic dog that tries to kill himself with it (survival of the fittest theory doesn't explain how my dog is still alive). 

ANYWAYS,

TA-DA!

My Charlie Brown Table top Christmas Tree decorated with the finest ornaments my nieces and nephews could make me (with a few Pirate themed ornaments and other random ones thrown in there). 

I just like that it looks kind of festive in that corner of the room, and my grinch heart grew at least 1 size this day.  :)
