Oh, I don't know. Maybe if I see it out of the box I will like it. Maybe if I can go find CLEAR lights tomorrow I will be more inclined to like it. DH said they didn't have any at the Target he went to, but there are LOTS of stores in this town.
I don't mind using my good ornaments as long as I am sure the tree won't tip over. That happened a few years back. That was the year I ended up going out and buying my fabulous pre-lit musical tree. DH got rid of our old Christmas tree when we moved because he said we wouldn't have room to store it. Then we had no tree. A friend had a tree in his attic that he said we could borrow. It was very unstable and fell over, and several of my ornaments suffered life threatening injuries. So my pre-lit tree was an "emergency" purchase and I paid WAY too much money for it. But we keep it in the original box in the top of DS's closet, so we DO have room to store it. Now the damn cat is determined to devour every inch of my pre-lit lights! And I am getting to the point that I don't care if we have a tree or not because I don't feel like messing with it. Bah, humbug!
