Our tree is usually a joint project,
my duty is to mount the tree and to mount the lights - old lights, some 40 years old, from my wife's grandma. She is dead now for a lot of years, but her lights got lit every x-mas.

My daughters are responsible for the remaining decoration, my wife is in charge to remove the whole thing in a couple of days.

Dear participants,
 
My beloved Teresa just came in with an attitude and told me that either I ask you this question or there will be no New Years pie tonight. (And for those who just started to smile: I'm talking actual PIE.)
 
Question:
How many of the MEN will now take credit for trees decorated by the wives, while they did something "far more important" themselves? I GUESS this attack wasn't directed towards Deb and Peggy. But the fact that I'm taking orders from Teresa just proves that also women can be the bosses. So, now when I don't have Teresa over my shoulder, I "twist" the question so Deb and Peggy won't automatically be home free... so: How many of the participants have actually decorated the trees on the pictures.
 
Answering for myself::
I wanted to decorate it this Christmas but that was out of the question. She simply wouldn't let me. I had to stand there with tears in my eyes and watch her having her fun... so I don't feel any guilt what so ever.
