While so many of you are already working on Halloween/Christmas 2012

My wife and I are just taking our Christmas 2011 tree down. Definitely a personal worst record for running behind

LOL, it was probably a record for me in getting the outside stuff down and actually put away.  Normaly the stuff is down by now but much of it still lying arond the garage.  This year it was ALL down and put away before the middle of January.  That is almost scary.

Just do like my family back home does....   Add mardi GRAS decorations to you tree then call it a mardi Gras tree.  When mardi Gras is over you put up Easter decorations and call it an easter tree.  You can keep that sucker up until June that way!

(Setting: Christmas ornaments are put up)
Wife: now for the lights
Me: yep
Wife: (starts taking off bubbler lights)
Wife: they're stuck
Me: what?
Wife: the lights are stuck.
Me: (inconspicuously working my way out of room)
Wife: who attached these with olive color zip ties?
Me: (freezes in tracks, starts whistling and looking at ceiling, attempting to look innocent, but failing horribly)
Wife: the rest of the tree is yours to take care of. I planned on it being done by four.
Me: (realizes it's four thirty, groans)
