Call Me Crazy If You Want...




Some people already do.

Mainly my out-laws...But as you know, I don't give a shit what THEY think!

I have two of my five Christmas trees already up and decorated.

Nuts? No! Christmas makes me feel good! Another form of "Free Therapy" if you will.

The Old Guy and his Not So Old Wife came over on Monday night per my request to get my outdoor tree out of the attic (remember I don't do ladders). They didn't even question. Or mention the fact that I was completely skipping a holiday in between Halloween and Christmas. They just did it cuz they knew. They know how Christmas makes me feel. That my friends is true friendship!

And no, I'm not skipping Thanksgiving.

I give thanks everyday!

So why decorate?

Besides, gourds are boring! So Not Fun!

So move over all my precious skulls, spiders, witches, rats and bats. I'll see you next year.

Like I told you yesterday-sounds like a good coping mechanism to me! I was sad last February when you finally took the tree down. I thought for sure you could have made it to St.Patrick's day!

Crap. I wrote a comment and then went to change the page instead of hitting "publish". Blogging + Beer = Bad.

I can't wait to decorate for Christmas either...

I never skip the other holiday because I know it means I'm about to start spending money.

Wow...5 trees. We have 2 and I don't know how I get stuck putting them up AND taking them down. I only do it for Love!

Girl I thought I was the only one crazy enough to put up 5 trees and the 5th tree is 12 ft. Thanksgiving is really only a moment to reflect, eat, and continue putting up my Christmas decorations.
Keep up the work!!
