That's Right....

Your eyes do not deceive you. I have my Christmas lights up. I put them up last weekend when it was in the 60s. My lights have been consistently up before Halloween for the last 8 years.

Yes, I know what you're thinking as I hear you rolling your eyes at me. The way I see it, it's much easier to hang lights when the wires are warm and pliable and you can feel your hands. No. One. has been able to dispute this or argue against it.

They're up, but they're not on. I have a little Christmas tree that I put in one of my large planters by the front door. Then all I have to do is plug everything in and VOILA!! I'm done!

I, too, complain that Christmas keeps showing up earlier and earlier in the stores every year. But it's all about my personal comfort, right?

Besides, we did see lights on over the weekend.......

I think I just gave myself a dope slap. I hear ya on the personal comfort thing,but I dunno...freezing hands and christmas lights are all apart of the season for me.

We always put our lights up before Halloween when it is still warm. We don't turn them on until Thanksgiving evening, but they are up. Same reasons as you. Warm weather and pliable fingers.
