I guess Christmas season starts the day after Haloween. At least is makes the wife happy.

 

[Pepper]

Yeah, Mrs Pepper and her mom have already started putting up Christmas decorations. This is the season they live for. It's also my annual gripe fest because all that crap is stored in the attic of a 2-story house.

Our used to be as well, until I smartened up and moved it to the garage.

 

[KE4EST]

Its pretty when its all done, but I hate getting that stuff out and putting it back up every year.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Yup I love putting it up... I hate taking it down!

Our used to be as well, until I smartened up and moved it to the garage.

We don't have a usable attic in my house, so I have to use the attic in my garage. The only "upside" to this location is the pulldown stairs. It's still a PITA to move stuff.

 

[dare2be]

Here in sunny Florida, our attic is unusable due to the fact that anything put up in there would literally melt. So the garage is storage central. Every holiday is the same routine...move the cars out of the garage, shuffle a dozen or more boxes to get to the 2 or 3 boxes we need at the moment. PITA.

Bah Hum Bug

Christmas stuff (music, store displays, etc.) should start the day after Thanksgiving. Too bad it has become so commercial driven.

Oh and the boxes of stuff for the house are kept in the garage and the outside stuff in a storage shed out back.

yep was at WalMart on Tuesday and they had a huge Christmas tree right when you walk in

 

[dan188]

Talk about overkill

 

[KAB]

When I was a kid, Christmas stuff did not come out until after Thanksgiving.

drove by the local dollar general today. they had garland across the door and a big santa propped up by the entrance

So far, Thanksgiving isn't as commercializable as Christmas and Halloween, just a meal and limited decorations, that's why it gets skipped. I did see Christmas stuff replacing some aisles of Halloween before Halloween in some stores both this year and last.

 

[Jim5506]

Local stores had Christmas stuff out a week before Halloween this year.

 

[thechaz05]

Well I for one LOVE it! It's my favorite time of year, reminds me of a simpler time. Of course the Mrs. is more like the Grinch. Anyway I wonder if Dish will ever put up a channel that is a Fire Place in HD maybe with Holiday songs playing. I know at one time "CONcast" had a channel like that and it was pretty cool.

 

[MarcB]

I personally look forward to Thanksgiving, No big expectations just a nice meal, 3 day work week, football,
who could ask for more! Just my thought.

 

[Mr Tony]

I look forward to Turkey Day too....because the next day is the "world famous" ice house parade in Aitkin, MN (near the cabin)

 

[jwmcmann]

Thanks, I'm looking forward to a merrier christmas!!!
