I'm curious to see if anyone else goes overboard and is "that" obnoxious neighbor with the 10000 Christmas Lights. I am, well I try to be anyway. I'm still in the process of unpacking my house and doing work because I recently moved. My house is mostly either C7 or C9 clear colored bulbs, and I have blow molds everywhere since I love the things. I like a lot of old timey Christmas things. I HATE those inflatable things although I begrudgingly have two. I need to dig a few pics of my old house in the 90's, as my dad used to go wayyy overboard.  

I am a griswald lol. Still doing my house. Tomorrow I'm hoping to run all the electrical cords correctly. Right now there everywhere because it was mainly to test 50% of the stuff out there.

Remember to check your plugs, check your bulbs, check your connections. House down the hill almost burned all the way down last week because of Christmas lighting that was left on while the people went out to dinner. Their four dogs died in that fire because they wanted to make the house look pretty. Sad...

I am not, but many in my townhouse complex are. So much so, that the association had to develop rules. "December Holiday" rules prohibit any decorations (especially lights) before the first Sunday in December, and after the first Sunday after new years. Traffic distraction...

I don't watch sports, I don't own any sports apparel.....I do however have the best Christmas shirt ever!

 

 

But I don't do the lights. I wish i had the time. That sounds so bah humbugish I know but Its just the way it is. I've always wanted to run power to my shed and make it into a gingerbread house though.

That's a beautiful house! Mine won't be as grand but my little nephews love it. This is lost likely my fathers last Christmas or so the doctors say. So I'm trying to do whatever I can to make it better. I've been out of work for over a year taking care of him. Making sure he eats, checking his sugar, dishing out pills, and almost daily doctors and hospital trips. I spent money I basically don't have just to add some more lights to the house. He hasn't been out to see it yet. So I'm hoping to finish tomorrow before the storm, so he can see it and all it's glory.

Not yet but I'm slowly building my collection. Started with a few sets of LED bulbs. Now I have like 10. Buy a few each year. This year I want to add some of the large decorative Christmas candles. In a few years I'll be close to Griswold status.

 

My old neighborhood had a sting of houses that were total Griswolds. Look nice. They did the same thing for Halloween. I drive over with my kids and one year talked with one of the home owners. They said they were all older families with no kids left in the houses and it is their hobby now.
