| 41. Isn't it funny how animals are fascinated with Christmas trees? |

Don't you get the feeling they think we've lost our minds... a tree in the house?! When I had a cat she couldn't get enough of staring at the tree and eating tinsel til I learned to use garland instead of the individual strands. I probably don't need to mention how gross the tinsel looked... ummmm... coming out of the cat. LOL

There's the tradition of bad luck if you leave your tree up after Jan 6th. |
