Mike threatened to tell everyone this anyway, so I'll go ahead and admit it....
I went against my word. I did it. I decorated for Christmas BEFORE Thanksgiving. On Monday we pulled out the two trees (one new one in the backroom and the original in the front room). My reasoning... get it done with since we aren't going to be home till Sunday. This way I no longer have to worry about it, right?
I was good though. I did NOT decorate outdoors yet, and I kept the blinds closed near the trees (hiding the evidence). Of course, our huge picture window at the foyer showed the world our garland up the staircase... but I didn't light it yet!
Ok... I'm as bad as the kids when it comes to Christmas. I get just as excited and can't contain it all within just one month of the year. I've been listening to the local radio station who started playing non-stop Christmas last week.... I bought the kids a 7-show DVD pack of Christmas favorites which we've now watched twice... I'm about 75% done with shopping. But, now I get to sit back and enjoy the season. :-)
As for baking... nope! Haven't started that.

Did you do any painting before decorating? Jes curious....
Actually, Rich... I did. But it was what we still needed to do after the whole flood thing. Just repainted the family room/breakfast room/kitchen areas. Just what point are you getting at there, bub? Huh? :-)
Point? Me? Ummmm........
