{November 1st = D Day}

in my world at least.

Since I already know that November

will be zipping by at a very rapid pace,

the fact that I won't be home for a little stretch,

and the fact that the bug bit me early....

I am going to start decorating on that first day of November.

In spurts.  Otherwise, it won't be done until Easter.

And, you know me......

I wouldn't be able to take it down until

the 4th of July.  So, although an early start for me,

it's the only way I'll manage.....

so excited!

Notice the Whimsical aka "crooked trees"  perfect for me as

all of mine are typically crooked by accident. ;)

I've got a stockpile growing!!  

I haven't bought much of anything for years, so this

year I am strategically stalking the Christmas aisles early.
