Cheri T Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Well Girls, they haven't even posted it yet, but apparently a lot of us are dreading the tree of doom already...I know I'm one of them. I was newish and a lurker in July,and I remember thinking anyone who tried to figure out that monster was in over her head, lol. So this can be a catchall thread for those of us banging our heads against the wall, or the occasional person who might just have to shout out, "I FIGURED OUT A PIECE!!"

MaryJo Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Ok, I'm missing something. What exactly is the tree of doom? I've been reading what all of you crazies are up to , but I can't figure it out ! Help please ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScrapGirlsRo Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 BWAHAHAHA!!! The tree of doom???? Did I make you suffer that much when I made that thing last year? OH NO! Well, you'll have to wait and see, won't you? Because all nice little girls have to wait and see what nice surprises Ro and her Elves have cooking up for you. For those of you that haven't been here with us for a year... The 12 Days of Christmas starts on the 13th of December...It's a big deal for us. We plan it and work on it for it for a long time... But what is coming is a SUR-PRIZZZZZEEEEEEEE .... I'm not telling. Zipping my lips. But you'll want to stick around and see. (Tee hee) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaryJo Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 All I can say is OMG what have I gotten myself into !!! :) I knew there was something about this site and now I know what it is. It brings back all those memories of Christmas past when I was the kid and NOONE would tell me a thing !!!!! And back in the day they didn't have support groups !!LOL..... So, I guess I'll stick around and see what pops up !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zaz Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 I would like to join the support group. The Tree of Doom in July made me buy stock in Advil. I now have plenty and would be happy to share. Ro is such a tease. One must be careful about teasing desperate people. Oh, btw, a Christmasaholic friend of mine always used to say that the 12 days of Christmas actually ran from December 25 forward. Boy, wouldn't that be much more convenient! Looking forward to much fun and frustration. I also enjoy shopping this time of year so I'm a glutton for punishment. ~Zaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shari PV Mom Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Was it Angela who told us to keep watching our newsletters? Well I've been watching! (Loved today's muse btw!) I don't see anything even remotely similar to the Tree of Doom! I think they are torturing us by making us wait ... which makes the TOD that much worse! Okay ... of to Costco to buy a great big bottle of Advil!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sarabethp Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Aha! Support Group! Glad I found you. I am looking forward and terrified at the same time. I joined in July, but am gone for 3 weeks for campmeeting and couldn't participate. Am (not) looking forward to the Tree of Doom. Just tell me when it is safe to look.

Cheri T Posted December 6, 2007 Author Share Posted December 6, 2007 I agree...it really must be serious with the way Ro is teasing us! I'm saving ALL my newsletters from 12/3 on just in case I need to go back and peruse. For those who may not know, you can always see recent newsletters at the bottom of the home page on the left. Glad to see I'm not the only one "worried" about this, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to see I'm not the only one "worried" about this, lol. Ro gave a great clue re: when to start expecting the ScrapGirls 12 Days of Christmas stuff. I keep my newsletters for perusing anyway, but you don't need to save them specifically for preparing for the 12 Days. And since lots of you joined after Christmas like I did and don't know this... the fun (and nutty) thing is that there are TWO 12 Days events to look forward to at ScrapGirls! One strictly for message board folks (which you're all excitedly participating in, riiiiiiight?) And then the much anticipated 12 Days that starts on Dec 13th as Ro mentioned ENJOY!

Launa Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Okay, you've all peaked my interest now! I can't wait to see what all this is about! LOL!! But it must be pretty serious if there is need of a support group! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julie - scrapaholic Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 I'm shaking in my boots. I was to afraid of that tree in July, but I'm gearing up for it this time around. I have advil, oreo cookies and fudge ready to get me through. Oh and plenty of coffee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

April Showers Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 I'm one who spent much of last Christmas in the boutique searching for tree items. And I was having so much fun. Too bad I didn't spend much (any) time on the message board and didn't see Ro's little corrections. Would have saved me a lot of confusion. (That's what I get for going back and looking through them this week.) Obviously need the support group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBT Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 The first step toward recovery April is admitting you have a problem. Good for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goofyemt96 Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 OKay going to admit i have a problem....Sign me up!!! That tree in the 12 days of Christmas had me spend so much in July and i went thru a whole bottle of tylenol!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julie - scrapaholic Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Confused one here. I thought the festivities already started. Meaning were on task 2, besides the TOD what else happens on the 13th, or what happened last year, as I know we don't know for this year. And was it all over one weekend, or did we have it over a the rest of December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goofyemt96 Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Julie, I have no idea...I was not here last year for Christmas...So no idea what everyone is saying...Im just going with the flow and hoping i can keep up!!! Bring the floatie the water might get deep!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaz Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 So do we need to hold a candlelight vigil for the 13th of December? Perhaps the tree will be unveiled on that day (that's better than the 20th). That's a Thursday. Maybe I can get the day off. I might need it. ~Zaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anne1701 Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Well, this tree of doom sounds like it's really something else! I'm starting to feel really glad that I not only have lots of Tylenol but also Tramadol to go with it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
