***SHUDDER*** I put up my first holiday lights last night! ooo Ooooooo!
I HAD to. They were bright shiny red and sparkly and I put them in the 5' tall Cypress flanking the front steps.

NEXT? Wrapping the porch columns in red (vinyl) and then wrapping them with twinkie light and ribbon festooned garland.

Ooo.

Oooooo.

oooo...

ooooooo.

what's everyone else's plans for decorating?

1. I don't plan to use lights...
It is a waste of precious energy. I would never have felt this way before I needed power back in August and had none. I realized just how precious and life sustaining it is.

3. Decorating? Why? For what?
For more profits for Wal-Mart? For more mid-east oil burned running all over town in the yearly quest to bankrupt yourself and max-out your credit cards?
I think not.

4. Do you staple or hang them on nails?
I think we should be told.

5. Alright! Here we go with the
conspiacy theories again. Staples would mean that a person is...
Unless nails are used, we can only predict that the lights are temporary and not that important after all. LOL
