respect your neighbor's procrastination! no xmas lights until AFTER thanksgiving!

[kid a]

Two houses on my street are already all lit up and festive.

:shrug:

1. I live near a house that looks like this all year round-

I guess they decided to cover all their bases by decorating for every conceivable occasion at the same time so they won't have to worry about taking anything down.

Edited to add I wish I had a nighttime picture but I used this pic from google earth.

2. Just a higher chance that their houses will burn down now.

3. My rule is they go up the first sunday in Advent.

I am a Christmas grouch until that time, after which I become the Lord Mayor of Christmastown.

4. I'm ok if you put them up, just don't plug them in.

If there's a nice weekend in November, I string mine up. One year the weather was so nasty in December I had to put up the lights 6 days before Christmas. Now I plan ahead.

I just don't turn them on til after Thanksgiving.
