You guys are too funny!!! Try having a 100 and something pound Rottweiler follow you into the potty. He sits there looking at me like "what I can fit in here too".

Yes Karen I decorate the outside for myself as well. I love the lights. I think thats why I am looking forward to the colored ones this year. Reminds me of when I was a kid.

On the inside my dh is usually the culprit. He has a 7 foot fake tree he puts way up high on a plant shelf. A couple years ago he added moving light up Mr and Mrs Claus. We have vaulted ceilings, last year I finally convinced him the bought live tree did not need to be 10 feet tall. They really get you for those big trees here. Very expensive.

I wish I could just go chop one down. My neighbor might not think to kindly of me stealing his tree.

No housecats. Never again. No litter box. No cat prints on my counter. No opening the door to find a cat stuck on the kitchen wall. Nope. :duc

I usually empty out this large metal platter MIL gave me (filled with pretty pebbles currently) & fill it with ornaments of different sizes, pine cones & candles. I have 4 different cheapo ornament sets that I rotate out. My mother refuses to let go of the antiques, "You'll have to wait til I die, sorry."

Then maybe a wreath & a simple garland on the mantle. That's about it.

i'll never forget the look on our #1 dog's face the first and only time he saw me in the bathtub.

he was all: MOMMA WHERE IS YOUR FUR AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN THE WATER TROUGH!!!!

seeing a huge shepherd about to pee his pants was priceless.

we include the dogs with the holiday fun - you know what i'm talking about... the reindeer antlers on the dog. oh yeah..... its a classic.

I don't remember what his name was before, but after that, it was Spazz Stick.

You know the crazy cat run? Where they run at top speed around the house? His path included a pass up the wall beside my kitchen window, like he was in some sort of cheesy martial arts movie.
Yes. Stuck. On. The. Wall.
Claws fur deep in the drywall.
And he wouldn't/couldn't let go when I tried to help him down. Ended up gouging out chunks to get him down.

Well, my goodness! :lol:

When we had an earthquake a few years back, one of my cats ran into the kitchen, where I was standing, and I saw her run up the side of the refrigerator . . . just like she was in The Matrix. :lol: Probably a good thing it was just a refrigerator and not drywall. :p
