Only 138 days until we reach the "ber" months!!!

Can't get here soon enough for me!

I love the "ber" months. My birthday, our anniversary, Halloween. Thanksgiving, and Christmas. What could be better!!!

[MinnesotaMike]

I can't believe just a few short months ago it was absolutely FREEZING here, and now it's so hot and humid! I will be decorating for Christmas in less than 6 months!

[ornamentmaven]

Here we are at the half way point!

[ornamentmaven]

I was walking around a store yesterday trying to get some gift ideas!

I think it becomes like the progression of time itself. I remember when it seemed like a particular day (or season) would never get here in my youth. As a young man, time almost remained a constant day after day.
Now in those "senior" years it literally flies by... ah well. As long as my memory remains intact (good Lord willing), I can always close my eyes, relax and bring back any time that I have ever lived and enjoy it again for a brief visit...

[chocolatechip1979]

I honestly feel like I just put our holiday items away. If I could get away with it I would never take my decorations down. I love the warm feeling you get just thinking about Christmas.

[Bishop1954]

Believe it or not, with all the accumulated stuff in my garage, the lighted garland around my double garage door is still up. And yes, from time to time I turn it on. Maybe tonight with this blizzard blowing around.

The older I get, the faster the time rolls by. We are already approaching the first quarter of the year till we are back into the "Most Wonderful Time of the Year". :santa-smiley:

No kidding! The years whoosh by me!

[Bishop1954]

Hard to believe sometimes. I did nearly 24 years in the USAF and haven been retired almost 26 years... :xmascandycane:

That must be really weird, since it probably felt like a lifetime that you were in the service.

[Bishop1954]

True. Except for the last year, there were times I thought I would never make it... lol :elf1:

Winter has officially started and Christmas is just a few days away. 2023 has really flown by... :tree:

No kidding. It feels like yesterday that you were deciding what your theme would be for this year's Christmas yard display. And I think that was right after Christmas last year. :santahat:

I feel like I can confidently tell myself that Christmas will be back here before I know it (which helps a lot!).

To be sure. I am already working on next year's design. I'm thinking of the theme "Checking it Twice". What do you think? :home:

I like that theme. I'd be interested to see how you put that together.
The library looks cozy. What's on the top of the tree? And I know I said it before, but I really like the lantern light. :reindeer2:

[Bishop1954]

I already have some ideas. Of course the sign outside will have to be hand-made... :elf3:

The sign?

[Bishop1954]

"Checking it twice..." :waving:

[Mistletoe]

That will be a nice project. :elf3:

[Bishop1954]

Looking forward to it and I will look for phosphorescent paint to use on the letters and possibly place a black light nearby to add depth to the glow... :tree:

Ah! Cool!

[Bishop1954]

I was checking them out down at Hobby Lobby. I just need to decide of big the sign itself will be... :yahoo:
