I grew up in Palo Alto California and they have a really cool one; the city replaces the regular streetlight bulbs with dimmer pink ones, everyone puts out a small tree with Christmas lights along the curb, and then the houses get decorated. Some of the decorations get passed along from resident to resident when the houses get sold; there's one large house that has elf cutouts climbing all over the house, another has a mechanical tin soldier in a guard house out front...it's really cool. Maybe some year I should do a video and post it...

It's never too early, I love it. I'm already watching all the Christmas Movies on Christmas 24 and Sky Christmas, although where I live it's usually 12 days before Christmas the lights go up, but the house across the street already have their tree up and Snowman in the window.

I think not, yesterday my local Four Seasons had already put up the Christmas decoration, so I snapped a picture as proof
Thats beautiful!! What were you at the Four Seasons for? Anything fun?
Unfortunately not, just for a meeting . But the nice Christmas lights lightened my spirit
Well that sucks..... I am glad that the Christmas lights lightened your spirit though! Did you get anything fun.........like hot chocolate or cookies for being there? LOL!! ( I am such a kid lol)

No, but they're serving champagne for meetings
Even better!! LOL!! I'd at least have three or four of those.....LMAO!!
Speaking of which.......I hope to get some kickboxing sessions for Christmas.......I asked, but Mom and Dad seem kind of iron clad on not getting me any more kickboxing sessions cause they are way expensive. I understand, but I really want it. My second big gift is the ps4. I have a feeling that I am going to want to up my gaming console cause there will be more ps4 games out than ps3 games out soon.
*hugs* @Bear31 I am doing just fine! Hope all is well your way also
I usually wait till Thanksgiving Day and decorate for Christmas (over the years)
Now I leave it for the kids to do, so who knows when it will get done, LOL
I would say go ahead and decorate, its cold outside anyways, so it feels like Christmas to me!

Things are going well for me here!! I am just sitting down to breakfast and thinking about what I want to accomplish today. I am re-organizing my room which is LONG overdo and have a crap ton of books and things that I want my sister to sell at her garage sale. Its hard for me to let go of some things, especially when it comes to books, clothes, cards of any kind with sentiment in it.....so hard. But a life less cluttered means a room less cluttered! AND I am more organized too when that happens. So all in all, it will be a good thing. Its all just a matter of getting off my butt and doing it. I am not going to spend a good amount of the day on it, just until I can clear away the stuff in the garage so I can put my car back in my own spot. Also, I am hoping and praying beyond hope that I just won't have to fill a HUGE bin to the top with books seeing as how I have a lot. I really don't know how much I have left in my storage facility, but I am hoping its not that bad.

It's the same block of wood that gets re-wrapped. Sometimes it is painted, but it is the same chunk of wood.
It's got years of teeth marks in it.
This reminds me of Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium........
