Because we all love clicky polls!

Can you tell my mind has been racing with the Holidays coming up? Hearing Christmas music on the radio this morning (OMG, no) made me think. When do you decorate?

[manybellsdown]

I am laughing.

We host Thanksgiving, so no one has time for that. After.

[pbandj714]

I'm very much in the "give Thanksgiving it's glory and decorate for Christmas Black Friday or after" camp. However, we have a high of 67 today and chance of snow this weekend, because Ohio. So I may give DH the ok to climb up on the roof today and tomorrow instead of waiting until after Thanksgiving. I'm justifying this by saying that at least we won't turn on the lights or put up the tree until after Thanksgiving, so it's still acceptable I suppose.

Also poooooooooolllls, yay!

Give me ALL the polls!

What does SS mean? Also, this poll is the funniest one we've had yet. It is pure perfection! Reading the choices actually made me laugh out loud.

I'm here to entertain!

SS means special snowflake.

I'm mobile so I can't vote but my plan is to decorate Black Friday. Last year I didn't decorate until mid December, morning sickness was at its peak.

I'm mobile also. I like to put the tree up the day after Thanksgiving. I won't listen to Christmas music until my sister and I do Black Friday except for three songs if I happen to hear them- Mariah Carey, Paul McCartney and Whitney Houston.

I'll have to get on a desktop to read these choices.

pbandj714, my best gay friend and I were supposed to go for pedis and wine this weekend, but we canceled because of the weather--we both want to get our Christmas stuff up while it's warm hahaha! Ohio weather, it is special.

[amiet79]

Canadian here, too. Most places in my town wait until after November 11 to put up Christmas stuff. I haven't put up anything yet and I'm just not in the mood for Christmas right now. I'll have everything up before December 1 though, since we are doing Elf on the Shelf for the older kids.

[frecklesnbrains]

I usually decorate in mid-December, enough time to enjoy it for a week or two leading up to Christmas. However, it's tradition in our family to keep up all the decorations to celebrate until the 12th night, and a tree doesn't last that long if you put it up right after Thanksgiving. Plus, I like the decorations but the longer I have them up the less special they feel.

[athn64]

DH's b-day is in December. So I have to wait until after that to decorate. So sad. Advent stuff comes out after THanksgiving tho.

[sandandsea]

The day after thanksgiving. . I hate crowds and shopping so Black Friday is not for me.

[pbandj714]

This is clearly why our UO threads never took off. We all seem to think alike!

For you and the others who couldn't see the Poll, the (hilarious) Options were:

When do you decorate for Christmas?

• Before Thanksgiving like a savage
• After Thanksgiving like I should
• Decorate? Ain't nobody got time fo that!
• Oops, I leave that shiz up all year!
• SS

Oh come on, we had some really HEATED arguments about things like whether or not we like pickles!

I'll stir thing up a bit-BEFORE!! The last few years we have been decorating a few years before Thanksgiving so it's done after Thanksgiving. I am not sure about this year. I am trying to decide whether to get a real tree for the first time or just use our fake one!

HAH, so you're waaaay ahead of the game!

I am always a celebrate one holiday before you decorate/begin the next. But I have to go back on that and we're decorating this weekend. Our issue is that we travel with my inlaws for Thanksgiving and then his grandma's birthday and dad's birthday are both in the beginning of December. Hanukkah is also usually beginning of December (though this year it crosses over Christmas) so we're a hot mess and don't have any free weekends in early December. I'd be sad if it wasn't up for very long, so I need to get things set up before Thanksgiving so we can enjoy it after. Also, since we're in an apartment, no one knows that we decorated early....so we can hide the fact we're way too early!

[packerfan4life]

After Thanksgiving. My sister's birthday is Dec 8th so growing up we'd never decorate before then (other than stockings for St Nick's).

HAHA!!! Huge typo! DAYS.

I love clicky polls and Im in the minority here. I will be decorating the outside of the house tomorrow. New England weather can be tricky so it will be 60 degrees and sunny tomorrow but next saturday could be 20 degrees and snowing. Climbing on the roof while wearing gloves and a big warm jacket makes things more difficult. I will decorate in the house next weekend and we will probably get the tree first weekend in December.

But I have been listening to Christmas music because I love it!
