Decorating for Christmas...
When do you all get the house and (outside) all decorated for Christmas?
I usually start decorating a week before Christmas. Last year it was two weeks before (thought it would help get me in the mood, but it didn't) but I hate having my house out of order for too long. I don't go overboard at all, but that's mostly because I haven't bought a lot of decorations in years. Really need to get some more. We don't decorate outside at all. If we did, I would probably have to do that too and I just don't have the time. I do love to go drive around and look at all the outside lights at night. Soooo pretty!

I normally decorate right after Thanksgiving. I didn't do anything last year b/c we were moving into our new house and we still had boxes to unpack so I didn't want to mess with it. We live a half mile off the rd. so I doubt that I will be decorating the outside. I would love to but I'm not going to spend all that time and no one be able to see it. Our next ouse I want to be on a main rd. so I have a reason to decorate outside.

We decorate day after Thanksgiving. Just inside the outside doesn't get it.

We usually start decorating on dec. 6th. The outside gets some, not a whole lot because i don't like to "overdo" it... but i love pretty lights and decorations if it's done properly.
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.

![]() 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.
