This is the weekend I start, usually as of today, Friday. However, as it was pouring rain, and the first thing I do is the outdoor lights (while it is a bit warm) I got thrown off track, lol.


Typically, this weekend I write all my cards as well, mail them on Monday. however this year, the photo cards aren't even getting to me until the 5th, so I will be behind a week or so on those.

I usually do the tree last. I put up decorations which are both Christmas AND Winter. Then, after Epiphany (Jan 6th), all the Christmas things come down. But the winter items remain until March / April. Depends a bit on the weather, and when Easter falls.
