When do you...πŸŽ„?


If you put up a Christmas tree, when do you do it? I usually put mine up on Thanksgiving weekend (coming up, of course). I now have an artificial one. I used to be against them, but eventually realized that, in the long run, it was less expensive and I don't have to worry about a real tree drying out. One year, we had one that was so bad we ended up replacing it.

The best one though, was the year we bought a tree that was about 15 feet tall. We displayed it in our dining room because that room was a story and a half high. It was wonderful.

Same here
I decorate for Christmas right after Thanksgiving...I like the lights and the rest of it so by Saturday it should be nearly finished

Christmas lights are almost the best thing about the season. Note, I said, almost.

Saturday Dec 1, I would think. Artificial also.

I decorate right after Thanksgiving, but delay the tree till my local rural feed store gets freshly cut trees in, about Dec 15 or so.

Good plan

My husband and I put up our Christmas tree the day after Thanksgiving. We have a fake tree that has white Christmas lights on it. We decorate the tree while we drink Martinelli's sparkling apple cider and eat some appetizers too. My husband will also put up some Christmas lights on our balcony. It's a lot of fun.

Sounds good to me!

I gotta get my eyes checked! I thought that was a poo mojiπŸ˜‚ I was befuddled at the thought of GlennEllen asking such a question😳

reply

Definitely get your eyes checked, DF!!

Also...I'm using a small tablet...but yeah. You gotta admit that the shape is kind of similarπŸ‘
πŸ’©πŸŽ„...look...identicalπŸ˜‚

reply

Well, okay, I'll give you that. But only if you're on another device... Still, a bit suspicious, DF.

Usually around Dec 21. Then shortly after that I board a plane to travel to Kansas to be with family.

Do you ever leave Kansas and think "I'm not in Kansas anymore." ?

reply


Yes, right after I tap my ruby slippers together three times.

No tree for me. I don't celebrate Christmas.

One week before Christmas.
