So many times we see deco's and lights that look like they have just been thrown against the walls, it gives a very untidy impression, and i don't like that, it's almost a shame and waste of all the pretty stuff.

LOL!! Those houses with the lights like that are those same people who keep their lights up year round!! hahahahahaa

Probably the first week of December I will begin to decorate. Just the inside though. To me honestly though it can be such a pain in the ass. Gotta go up in the attic to haul all the boxes down. (Theres gobs and gobs of boxes too, ugh) Then it takes days to set it all out...Then before I know it I have to take it all down and rebox it, then stash it back into the attic. I really need to be hit hard with that festive bug before I become excited to decorate.
