    (no, we haven't done anything yet)

    I have a "friend" on FB whom I sort of got to know via the Maine Coon circles. She seems like a nice enough lady, albeit kind of whack. You know how expensive these cats are, right?

    She has five.

    Five pure-bred Maine Coons.

    Well, it seems that she tends to go overboard on other things. Like Christmas.

    Last year:

    Mind you, this is her KITCHEN.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      I know someone who also does that. I have no idea where they store all the stuff the other 11 months of the year, nor how long it takes to put up each year. Anyway... it's festive, but not my cup of eggnog.

          Why do you say that?

          As 89th said, it's not my cup. I would never do that.

          She is whacko, indeed, but I know other things about her that would belie your comment. Spirit is one thing that she's not poor in.

            I would call that an abundance of spirit.

              Don’t like cats.

              Not the forum member. The felines.

              Other than that I have no skin in this.

                Yup, I remember. At Mark's place a couple of years ago, you mentioned that. And, of course, the cat immediately knows who doesn't like them and gravitates toward that person.

                  That would drive me bonkers in a day or less to have so much holiday stuff on display. How does she have the time to do all that? I have better things to do, like talk with you guys. LOL
