Going to be 60 or over here this weekend and I am finally over bronchitis after 3 weeks, I can actually exert a little without coughing up a lung ... and I am really swampped with other commitments because it's 2 weeks before Christmas.

I can't win. Maybe if I get up at 3 am and go out early before I have to get other things done.

Or maybe the family will just have to live without something this year .... Can I just stand a broom up in a wastebasket next to the fireplace and tell them it's a Festivus tree?
