With my dear friend and biggest teaser Shannon coming for a visit, I knew I had to do something to head off the comments about my Christmas decorations still being present (although not up!) in um, mid-February. What I needed was a good distraction.
So I present: The Valentine's Tree.

| Never you mind the Christmas ornaments I couldn't reach at the very top. |
Ha. Ha. I'm hell bent to get it down and in back in the garage before Easter. (Although wouldn't paper eggs and bunnies look just fetching? (Mr. T, I'm KIDDING! (Mostly.))).

| FYI. |

| Okay, so I've been a little busy finishing the dissertation. At least Christmas is contained to a single room in the house. And I really *do* plan to get it put away unlike 2009 when I started my doctoral program (and was planning a wedding) and the tree stayed right there for two Christmases in a row. |

I like your tree transformation. I almost got to February with the tree still up, but I finally got it down and stuffed the Christmas fixings in the basement... one of these days I'll get down there and actually organize/put them away!
