Kirby Posted December 19, 2019 Share #1 Posted December 19, 2019 AT the moment, this little color changing snowman is my main Christmas decoration. I also have a few battery operated candles in the front window. I'm pretty sure some of you have more elaborate decorations, so please share your pictures. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kzoo Posted December 19, 2019 Share #4 Posted December 19, 2019 With Rudy the Wonder Dog roaming the house we are not doing a tree this year. WoKzoo put up just a couple decorations that could be hung above the 5 ft level. I wrapped lights on the deck railing in back and this past week end WoKzoo (with my wood cutting help0 made a cute 5 ft snowman that is sitting in the snow outside the bask window. I have no pics at this time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maddmaxx ★ Posted December 20, 2019 Share #22 Posted December 20, 2019 Womaxx has been collecting Santas and making Santas for years. All this lives in a set of containers for the rest of the year. It takes about a week to uncrate this and set it up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not a new thing, but the overplaying of Christmas songs and the bellringers and the buy, buy, buy aspect and the travel are all pretty off-putting for me. I generally feel better about Christmas after Christmas is over, then the Christmas spirit feels a bit more alive, but then I feel that I have missed it all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kick it, blow it off, ignore it, follow Nancy Reagan's advice, "just say no." It's overblown. My plan, everybody gets a book. I went to a bookstore and picked out one book for each of my friends and family. Not expensive books. I'll cook a nice meal for them, not fancy, but I will roast not steam the brussels sprouts @RalphWaldoMooseworth. I will bring a puzzle too and some trivia questions to quiz them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting looking book. I read one of Bill McKibbens's book aboot global warming where he basically said it's happening so we have to adjust. I was big on Skipping Christmas by John Grisham too. I like your Christmas plan all except for the incorrect cooking of the Brussels sprouts. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My son worked as a tour guide here: Gillette Castle on the CT river. Every year the place is decorated for Christmas well in advance so the touristas can come. Maybe it runs on her side of the family. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

12string Posted December 20, 2019 Share #37 Posted December 20, 2019 This ugly thing was given to us years ago by a friend who constantly tried to decorate our house, but didn't get the theme. My wife told me to take it to work, get it out of the house. This was the wonderful friend who recently and tragically passed away from a ruptured colon. This has taken on a whole new beauty now. Even if you can't really see the color changing LEDs in the windows 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is where it came from. As close as I ever came to getting an orange was a limp of coal. Actually we always got an orange, a red delicious apple and a popcorn ball. And sometimes I got a lump of coal. None of our oranges came from your bucket. They came from the local IGA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
