And, no, I'm not talking about the song. However, after a long Thanksgiving day my husband has decided he wants to start decorating our house for Christmas time. Every year, we try to top what we did for the year before. and this year is no exception. George is looking to be fully retired (no longer working) shortly after the start of the year. So, he'll need little projects to keep him busy.

I normally try to decorate during the weekend after Thanksgiving, but sometimes don't get it done till the first weekend of December, lol

Good luck with your husbands retirement and his little projects.

I can feel it now, he's going to start driving me nuts, making it hard for me to get anything done.

He's working on it, which tells me he's not as ready as he thinks.

My hubs is also going to fully retire in 2023. He will go from working 50-55 hours a week to retirement. He will go to our son's place every day and be the primary care giver for the twins after our daughter-in-law returns to work from her maternity leave. So, he will still be working, just not drawing any pay.

I am going to decorate for Christmas the next weekend. This year I do not want too many decorations, we are only my husband and I for the holidays.

Best of luck with your decorating. The decorations should give you a Christmasy feel. I am not putting up any decorations in the apartment, the cats would only knock them down again.

Chilly is pretty good about not doing damage, but we still have the tree out of his way.

How about getting him to make next years decorations instead of buying any. That would really keep him busy.

Speaking of little projects...you have reminded me...it's time to go to the Christmas tree place, gather some disks, and make some little Christmas trees for my friends. That's pretty much all of the decorating I do around here.

The house has not been decorated yet since my relatives and myself are still working on our jobs at this time.
