The Final Countdown

Wouldn't you know it? I woke up Saturday morning bright eyed and bushy-tailed, and ready to put up Christmas decorations! I contented myself by working on my mitten and Christmas tree garland, but I wasn't the only member of the family who suggested getting out even a few tinsel-tinged decorations this weekend. We exercised great restraint, however, and instead listened to a few holiday tunes in preparation for the big event. Check out this week's poll and tell me when you think it's safe and sane to start decorating for Christmas.

I am actually excited to decorate NOW too! But it's way too soon, so I will just think about it and maybe buy some stuff until it gets a little closer to thanksgiving. I'm in line to find out how long YOU last. :-)

Take a deep breath and wait, my precious one. It's MUCH too soon. I'm thinking you're prematurely decorating for Christmas if it's not Thanksgiving. Feel free to sprinkle a few winter-type decorations amongst your Fall fare, but you must control yourself a little longer.

Me too, I was cleaning out the hall closet and thought-lets just rip out all the holiday stuff!! I had to be talked down by Diana Gabaldon who happened to call in my madness moment. She warned me that it was just too soon. So, I am going to compromise and put up the decor the week before Thanksgiving. We'll see how that works out.....
