Y'all ain't gonna believe this.

This evening I walk out into my front yard and see that one of my neighbors down the street already has their yard all lit up with Christmas decorations.  WTF! 😲

Halloween was yesterday, Thanksgiving is in 4 weeks and they're already pushing Christmas?!!  I'm nowhere near ready for this crap. 💩

The unspoken rule of Christmas season starting November 1st seems to have affected your neighbor. I'd suggest a quarantine around the perimeter of your house before it gets too crazy. The Christmas spirit is very infectious and most people are likely to have fallen victim by it. If you start hearing Mariah Carey singing, I'm afraid it may be too late...

When I see valentines merch being put out at Walmart and hear Ol Bing I know it's Christmas.

I was thinking about this the other day and am taking a different approach. If people want to show their Christmas spirit all year long, well so be it. I used to put out the lights on the house for a few years. How ever we live a good bit off the road and the house can not bee seen from the road that we live on. We do not get many guests so I felt it was a waste and stopped. The house can be seen from a road about 1/2 mile away, but if not looking at the road you will miss the curve going over the hill.

As far as stores, well it is all about money, we know this.

While I'm not a fan of Christmas, it's been clear since my childhood putting decorations is a post Thanksgiving meal (and booze) activity.

Those who practice should respect traditions. 😁

its on my street, but the next block over. I only noticed because it was dark and they have the entire yard lit up. 🙄

So I guess (hope) there isn't much chance of the contamination spreading any time too soon. 🥴

My wife was so picky about how the tree went up, where the decorations go, and how they're packed away when it's over that nobody wanted to help her put it up or take it down anymore. So, she had to do it by herself and suddenly she realized what a job it is. The last time she put up our tree was 2020 and she never took it down. LOL

You folks never met my Mom. She loved Christmas and the lights more than anything. My brothers wife is the same way. When mom had to move in with them Christmas started before Thanksgiving and he got a double dose. As a matter of fact he sent me a picture last week and his wife already had 2 trees up. You all pray for him. Lol.

Like RED333 our house can't really be seen from the road.  A few years ago I put up solar powered rope LEDs under the front porch banister so we could use the front porch after dark without turning on extra lights.  I leave them on year around. A day or so after Thanksgiving I switch them to twinkle mode for Christmas till New Years, then back to full on.  That's about all the Christmas decorating we have done some years.  Depends if family is coming or not.  We have red boa that gets put around a bear statue at the end of the drive most years but it got blown away last year and I don't know if my wife will find a new one
