A considerable change of subject:
I bought the neatest thingie yesterday. Perhaps y'all have seen it...a Christmas tree-watering device. It's a very long funnel. Plastic "cup" at the top with a funnel tube about 3 1/2 feet long. You stick it down through the back of the tree down into the container. The cup has a velcro tab which can be attached to a nearby branch.
Then you can simply pour water into the cup to water the tree...no getting on your knees, no spills. It also comes with a long "dip stick" with which you can detect when the water level is low.
As Martha would say, "It's a good thing".

We were planning to go out and (finally) get a Christmas tree today, but it's snowing like crazy, and will continue to do so all day, with at least 4" already on the ground. Oh well. I guess I could clean house instead. Augghhhh!
