This year specially I have noticed lots of homes already trimmed up for Christmassy..... Lots have got their trees up and lights outside their houses.. Is it me being miserable or do you lot trim up early as well.??

Do you know I haven't even got one pressie in yet. By now it is normally all done. I know why it aint,,,, two holiday in UK,,, two holidays in Icmeler,, I am going to Istanbul Feb and then back to Icmeler May. I aint bothered about Christmas pressies, decorations, I just wanna come back to Icmeler. I need all the money I can muster. Yes I am putting me first for the first time in 57 years,,,,Am I being selfish,, yes I am,,

Wasn't going to bother putting mine up as I'll be away for xmas and new year but the rest of the family say I must. Bah humbug. I think before December is just too early. I hate all the dust when you get them down after a couple of weeks never mind a couple of months.

As for the Christmas shopping thats all on hold as some fool decided to totally wreck my car last night. Grrrrrrrrrr.

I sort of side with Iain on this one , working in retail means we start xmas just after Easter! or so it seems. However Iain, its not PC anymore to call your friend a fairy.

As much as I like xmas I'm not sure about putting loads of decorations up this year as there are only the two of us but will defo make an effort when we eventually have kids... :-)

I love putting up the xmas tree and decorating it. We don't do xmas decorations as such anymore, just have a few xmassy things around the lounge. All this doesnt happen until a few days before xmas day. I can't lift the stuff out of the loft, so I have to wait for hubby or one of our sons to help me.

She really doesn't mind! It's the dressing up that I like ;-)
