LOL - how funny that your neighbor has a wreath up! Someone in my town has lights - THAT ARE TURNED ON DAILY - still! Icicle lights! HA! I mean, come on now.. that's a bit weird, and I am nutty about Christmas (says the lady with Christmas bubble lights as nightlights year-round!)
Where in PA are you? I was such a grouch today and couldn't figure out why- until I realized it's the HUMIDITY! I can't handle it! I turn into an evil witch! They are calling for near-90 and humid at the end of the week... we only have window units so I am going to tell my husbnad to put them in! Blech!
Lights, seriously?! As much as I enjoy looking at them, I think my family members would kill me if I had ours hung up and lit! Our electric bill is absolutely insane around Christmas because my dad goes CRAZY with our lights. Seriously, we're like the Griswold's except for colored lights and maybe not as many because theirs are over the top. My mom and I were laughing today because we were frantic for an oven mitt and found a snowman one to use - but then we forced ourselves to pack it away.
I find that if I keep all of my Christmas stuff out I don't get as thrilled around the holiday season. I get so excited unpacking all of the boxes and seeing things that I forgot existed.
I am in Pittsburgh! It is really too hot for this time of year. It feels like July weather and it's only May! Get those window units going!! I need to put the window fan in my room because it gets like an oven in here.
