Remember Angie's beautiful Christmas tree that she posted pictures of? Originally posted by chenno: My x-mas tree...
![[Linked Image]](http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h274/chenno/HPIM0098.jpg) Pic from upstaits loft, hard to take pic,tree's so tall..
![[Linked Image]](http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h274/chenno/HPIM0096.jpg) Hard to see it is dusk, I have cattails and grapvine and swamp sticks painted in there...lol In the next post I'll show you what it looks like now... ...after a dog/cat/ tree altercation awhile ago.

Yikes! I think I'd feel like giving up and throwing the tree outside at that point! Hang in there Angie!

Oh Angie, what an awful mess. I am so sad thinking of how sad you are sitting there having to deal with all of that. Wish I could help with the clean up as well.

Angie, I am sooo sorry to see this! I guess the dog/cat didn't appreciate the hard work you did in putting up the tree... How in the world did you end up with stitches? I hope you are doing better when you read this and are able to make the best of the sad situation... Hugs and prayers for you... Dianna

Angie, maybe this site or this one will help you with the cat. I haven't spotted one for the dog yet... Orange peels sounded interesting and very do-able to me... Dianna

Angie, SO sorry of the tree and the leg too..Real trees are hard to setup, and deco.. that is why I gave up after all these years of trying. I bought a fake ready decorated one and had it 3 years now. Chenno..do you have yours tied in back ? We always did that . Think good thoughts Angie,, like your seedy friends here will make spring brighter. Lotza Love, Dodge

Angie, so sorry about the tree & the stitches! But at least you are ok, and the tree back to its corner. I love how animals say they are sorry when they booboo, it is SO cute!
