Such a rush, but no hurry

Have you ever noticed during the beginning of the Holiday Season folks are in such a rush to get their Christmas Decorations up, but yet they are in no hurry to get them down? I have a few morans on my street who are still sporting their holiday decor, and trust me, it has been up since before Thanksgiving...And there has been plenty of nice days to get the crap down. Pretty soon I am going to start my own "neighborhood watch" program and help these nice folks take their crap down...

Sorry for them, but where its going , they wont be using it next year..

**
during dinner last night Boo Bee looked at her plate and started eating her potatoes. I told her to eat her meat. She looks at it, picks and pokes at it, then says " gross"

Then half hour later she takes the laundry basket, uses it for a ladder and dips her hand in my " I cant believe its not butter fat free spread" and says " momma this good"

I see I need to take some culinary courses if my baby would rather eat butter than my cooking.

Our decorations go up on Veterans day (November 11th - but we don't turn the lights on until the day after Thanksgiving) and come down after New years eve.

we're not big on outdoors Christmas decorations here, and we rarely decorate our tree until Dec 23rd. And all Christmas stuff is gone by Jan 10th. Mostly. At least in our family. But there's actually a general rule like it...

keesh said...

If you don't put any up outside then you don't have to take them down, that is what i say :).
Is it sad that I barely know any of those songs...sad. And i like elton john too, so what the heck.

No Christmas decorations lurking around this house. Christmas presents - yes! Hey, on our budget we have to plan way ahead.

That bothers me so much; the decorations up when its almost SPRING!
Geesh. I'll come help you put them where they NEED to go, maybe up their tushy.

That looks like a fun meme to do, I just may try it out!

Karin said...

Ok I still have the lights hung on my fence but they are not lit. I haven't taken them down yet because we were cleaning out the closet where things are stored and I didn't want to have to deal with the lights until that was done, so I guess I am guilty. They are coming down this week though cause the closet is done and the fence is about to be torn out and replaced.

I am not sure I am up to the musical challenge I will have to get it a lot of thought.

eyes_only4him said...

lawbrat,
come on over and we will De-Chritmastize the block..come on girl;)

Karin
GET YOUR BUTT OUT THERE...hahah..want me to come help ya sweety?..I will..

Anne Coleman said...

eyes_only4him said...

Michelle,

Anonymous Fat Blogger said...

I make hubby put lights up the day after Thanksgiving and take them down anytime during the week between Christmas and New Year's. If it was left up to me to actually do it, they would be up year round too! Thank goodness for hubby!

Twisted Lady said...

Ohhh, I have such a thing about that. Take that da*n sh*t DOWN! I stuff my tree back into it's box on New Years Day.

Amy said...

I love and hate decoratons at the same time! They are such a pain in the butt and things like this happen :)

Krystal said...

I had to laugh! My neighbors at the other house and I use to make bets as to when my husband would finally take the lights down. I use to turn them on...in MAY...so he could find his way home.

Peggy said...

I put up christmas decorations thanksgiving day and take down the inside decorations christmas day night and the outside ones new years day. I am also one of those that decorate for every holiday. Right now I have my St Patty wreaths on the doors and my flag hanging and my outdoor goose thingy has his St Patty outfit on. but I promise to take them down and put up easter stuff on the 18th.

Jamie Dawn said...

Christmas decorations up until spring is just SOoooo wrong! It bugs me too.

Butter tastes good, so don't take it personally. Maybe you should just slather everything in butter & she'll eat it. Nah, you know she wouldn't.

Me said...

I did that once too. So fun! I can't stand people who leave the decorations up year round. No offense to anyone who may do that :)

JM said...

Nice answers
My nephew never liked eating any meat. Even as a child, he would pick through his plate, pushing all the meat aside.
He's 14 now and still puts the meat aside.

Unknown said...

well i must be weird cuz i can hardly wait to get my christmas stuff down. maybe it's that we have a tiny house and it's just more junk in the way

eyes_only4him said...
