Adelines mom had counted the weekends wrong which can be easy to do. So we are doing it next weekend instead. I was starting to hope I could get the trees put away. . This is the longest I have ever had them up. Since hubby won't be making chili I am going to put a roast in the slow cooker. It's been several months since we had one of those. I don't know if it will be a No Football Room day or not. Hubby still needs to check if he can get any of them. Hope you have a good day.

I think you get the afternoon game, but not the night game. Just from what you’ve indicated in the past. I’m sorry you couldn’t get the trees put away.

@wolfgirl569 Yes, the Panthers and the Rams. So am I! It is a late afternoon game, and those always seem to last forever.

Packers and Bears are on Prime. I still need to schedule Christmas here now that I'm fully recovered.

Slow cooker roast does sound good. We haven't had a roast in ages. Enjoy!

It was very good even with me having grabbed steak instead

Oh my goodness, a very long time to keep the tree up, but it's nice to see. A good roast is a delicious meal.

@wolfgirl569 - I agree that Christmas trees are pretty.

Roast sounds really good! I hope you enjoy it. When Pretty refused to help me take our Christmas tree down one year, I left it up. It was in a room we rarely used so didn't matter. When she refused to help me take it down the second year, I gave it and the decorations away. Then refused to buy a new tree for several years explaining that I wasn't doing all that work myself ever again. When I did buy a tree, it was hooked into the ceiling and was really made for outside so took little work to hang it and take it down. (Pretty griped about it not being a "real" tree, so when I took it down for the last time, I didn't buy another tree and, when she complained about not having a tree again, I said she didn't like our last tree... After a few years, I bought the tiny 5 inch tree we have now. ) It's nice outside here. I hope it's pretty there, too.

@wolfgirl569 You kept them up far longer than I normally did. I'd put the tree up a couple of weeks before Christmas but wanted the tree down by Christmas afternoon. And that was before I went to work at Walmart!

I might go buy her a calendar and she can mark the weekends on it. Then she just needs to remember the holidays and they over ride weekends. That's what makes it confusing sometimes

@wolfgirl569 That's a good idea. I love having one old fashioned calendar to scribble things on.

One more week before you can put away your tree but having it up for your Christmas celebration will just make it feel more Christmassy.
