November 29, 2025: The Holiday Mishap

Today we became a statistic.

According to experts, fifteen to twenty percent of households join this club each year. And now our names landed on the list.

Our Christmas tree fell down.

I heard Jess scream and then came the noise. She watched the whole thing from a nearby couch.

Thankfully, little damage, but it took an hour to restring the lights and hang ornaments again.

Nothing says Merry Christmas like a 7-foot pine crashing onto the floor.
