We have no tree...

Well we do have a mini tree, but it's not the same when it's ceramic and presents are two times bigger than it.

Here is the scoop:
We always have a fake tree because my mom has allergies... many many allergies.. Anyway, we threw out our old tree because it was like 20 years old, and my parents bought a new one after going to the cheese factory. I mistook it for a huge box of cheese, because I never knew they were buying a new one. But it was a new something-berry spruce artificial tree. When we were putting it up yesterday, without my mom because she felt sick, I noticed the ends of the branches seemed like rubber, which my mom is allergic to. I asked if they checked if it was made of rubber, and they said it was something... that didn't sound anything like rubber..

Turns out my mom was allergic to it.

As I was putting up the decorations by myself (mom sick, brother having shower, dad had better things to do), my mom kept feeling worse, and my fingers began to feel powdery, like they do when you touch new rubber (laytex rubber btw). My mom is anaflatic to this kind of rubber. And when I got up today, I really wanted to relax and have a shower, but I HAD TO TAKE DOWN THE TREE! =.="

We still have only a mini tree... and it's Christmas eve.

Hope you're having more fun than me.
