Boarder and the boys were going to put up the tree tonight a little later.  Middle Boy decided he would just do it...couldn't wait for anyone else.

I asked him repeatedly to just wait.  Furniture needed to be moved.  Putting the tree together is a two person job.  There was NO WAITING to be done.  So as a result we have an arm chair on top of a sofa (why not?) and one in front of the front door (hope no one comes over).

We have a tree with no top section (can't reach it) and the lights don't work (can't find all the connection points).

Middle Boy is done though.  He can't do it.  Someone else can just take care of it or we will leave it.

I HATE looking at that tree.  It represents how frustrating life is right now.
