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!!!
Now it's down to 106 days!!!
Yeah! I especially love October for my two personal holidays plus Halloween!
That' for sure:elf3:Quote:

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!
We'll be seeing Fall and Halloween decorations in stores in 2 months!
True - can't wait!Quote:

Here we are at the half way point!
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...
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.
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!Quote:

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

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:Quote:

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:Quote:

I like that theme. I'd be interested to see how you put that together.Quote:

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

That will be a nice project. :elf3:
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!Quote:

Nearly a third of 2024 is now past. It seems like I just got the stuff put away and it is almost time for some light Christmas in July decor to come out. :tree:
We are now half way there and I just saw Fall decorations in Michael's! The last day of Spring was only 2 days ago!
Hallmark is all ready with their Christmas in July movies. The holiday season will be here before we know it!
Very true. Hobby Lobby is clearing some aisles for Christmas decor and I am already checking out the movies... :kinky elf:Quote:
