Leaving The Joneses Behind

I don't want to brag, but I took our Christmas lights down on January 3 and we boxed up the fake tree two days ago. We haven't put any of it away yet, but let's not get ahead of ourselves -- the point is that we've de-Christmased our house, and BEFORE a few of our neighbors did!!! This year, finally, at long last, we won't be the family with Christmas decorations up for 4th of July.

I'm so proud I could cry.

You Scrooge. Not only is my real live Christmas tree still up, the wreath I made from the extra branches is STILL on my door. So take that.
