I've had a tabletop fake Christmas tree for the last 25 years. It has ornaments signifying the giver, places where I've visited, etc.

I love it. But admittedly have forgotten to put up the tree! My family is distracted by my father dying in the hospital. I fly to Ontario to speak with him for last time. He's still alive, but fading rapidly in the hospital.
