so my tree fell over again. i set it up. decorated it. all was well. and then the cats laying on the tree skirt made it fall over. so i took it all apart and taped the bejeesus out of the little plastic feet and put it back up on the back of a framed poster so it was on level ground. that worked well. i put lights on it and left it for a few days. since it was still straight and all happy, i put ornaments on it and left it. then it got all wobbly or something because of the ornament weight and it fell over again. justin thinks the fact that octavian was sitting on the base/tree skirt and chewing on a branch didnt help things either. it broke a few ornaments, pissed me off...
so i took it apart AGAIN, used more tape... taped it to the poster backing. put it back up. i have lights on it. and my paper star up top. but im a little hesitant to put ornaments on it, even non breakable ones, since i dont want to undress the damn tree again when it falls over. i also dont want to put the tree skirt on it because octavian LOVES to lay on it and that cant help things. ....but this is what the base looks like:
and thats less than visually appealing. damn piece of shit christmas tree. once the holidays over, im throwing the damn thing away. one less piece of garbage to store until we move.
