Just wondering this morning: how many of you still have their Christmas
decorations outside? |

-I don't but some around here still do -In Valdez, Alaska, and probably other Alaska towns, people are asked to
leave their outdoor decorations up until mid-March. They add some color to
the landscape. My son took my lights down some time in January. There are a few houses
here that still have their lights up, but they don't usually turn them on. -Fortunately, not everybody feels that way. If they did, large parts of the
world would never celebrate Christmas. -Of course Christmas comes from the heart, from within, the religious
aspect of it. But there is also an expectation aspect, and I agree
with Lorraine, certain parts of Christmas don't seem like Christmas
without the snow.
Only to people who are used to it. Millions of people have never seen a
white Christmas, except on TV or in the movies. Most of us don't feel
deprived. -I also have used fake flowers as "fill ins' to areas where I have no
flowers or scattered flowers...one section I mostly use fake ones in
is in my front yard because my moles love to eat my real flowers and
bulb there...now-in my back yard, I mostly use big pots...except for
sunflowers and marigolds which moles and squirrels leave alone-and oh
yeah ,cactus too! ;...now-about my wooden snowman-it came from Wal-
Mart |
