Lucky you.......

Indeed, I have. The tradeoff is that I have a 6 foot tree in my house all of the time, taking up space and enticing the kitteh into mischief. I will take it down in 2018 because We need more room and I'm tired of squirting the lil guy every time he gets hypnotized by the lights or shiny ornaments. Luckily, the tree is pre-lit, so I only have to check for any burnt bulbs before putting it away. The ornaments and garland aren't too bad so that's not a problem.
