A plan sounds like work. Christmas decorating to me is a labor of love, I wait the whole year for it to arrive.
It is very labor intensive,but fun at our house and we will do what we can do and sometime not long after Thanksgiving we will declare it finished.
Then I will pour a couple of glasses of Christmas cheer for my Good Lady Wife an myself and we will sit and enjoy our efforts until it's time to clear it all away for another season.

'I will live in the Past, the Present, and the Future!' Scrooge repeated, as he scrambled out of bed. 'The Spirits of all Three shall strive within me. Oh, Jacob Marley! Heaven, and the Christmas Time be praised for this! I say it on my knees, old Jacob, on my knees!' (Charles Dickens A Christmas Carol)
