The Stupid Christmas Thread

[Dirty Big Yoke]

Earliest we've put up ours was around middle of November.

I've also known people who kept theirs up until March.

I could be in the Christmas spirit 9 months out of the year. If I lived anywhere near the equator, I could not celebrate it with no cold weather. Can't do it

Americans usually start decorating after Thanksgiving, which is now. Personally tend to wait until a week before Christmas, two weeks tops, and then take it down almost immediately afterwards. Outdooor lights go up early, but prefer to maintain normalcy inside the house as much as possible.

I've also known people who kept theirs up until March.

That can be a sign of depression, which can be common during and after the holidays.

This is so true.

Gonna put up the tree this weekend. I do love a tacky, colourful christmas tree.

I think I'm going to ask the boy to help me put up some outdoor lights this weekend.

We bought some tinsel for the cats to play with.

The outdoor Christmas lights are up. We used to deck out the whole front of the house but that's more than we care to do anymore, so we just did the trunk and part way up the limbs on the big tree in the front yard. It's something we can see from inside the house and it will be nice for people walking on the sidewalk. We had more green lights than anything else, so we opted for green. I've officially named it the big green blob, because that's what it will look like from a distance.  Now I just need to figure out what to do with myself for the rest of the day.
