She bought a big christmas tree, a pile of decorations for the tree and some bits and pieces for the house the christmas after we bought the house. Since then she's not bought anything else so I guess she's stopped :) (it was a surprising amount of dollars to me when she went christmas tree and decoration shopping back then but it seems to be lasting ok) Edited December 5, 2020 by GeoffH 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum Support Old55 Posted December 5, 2020 Author Forum Support Posted December 5, 2020 (edited) Jack, my wife starts decorating on Thanksgiving day but it's mid January before they go back up into the attic. If she had her way they would go up early October. Edited December 5, 2020 by Old55 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graham59 Posted December 5, 2020 Posted December 5, 2020 A put up a few strings of those flashing LED lights for her a few days ago...she did mention placement of our Xmas tree (at present in a cupboard under the kitchen sink)...but not much action since then. I really WILL miss the local Barangay and family dance-party events, if there are to be none this year though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevewool Posted December 5, 2020 Posted December 5, 2020 We need extra tinsel, we need extra lights and so on is all I was hearing until I got everything out and shown Emma how much we really had , enough to cover 2 very large Christmas trees . I thought I got through to her but midweek a parcel came and yes more glittery items , bless her 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy79 Posted December 5, 2020 Posted December 5, 2020 (edited) I've convinced mine that I don't celebrate Pagan festivals. She's now knows that the Christians have stolen the Winter Solstice and I can't condone theft. Edited December 5, 2020 by Snowy79 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
