As soon as the month of each respective holiday comes along it\u2019s time to change themes.

Many households start setting up for Christmas after Thanksgiving dinner.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Christmas advertisements start running well before Thanksgiving Day but that is no excuse to have Christmas decorations up at any point before Turkey Day. Let\u2019s have a little respect for November! Unless, like my household, Christmas lights are never taken down in the first place, making for less hassle each year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maybe a different indicator for putting Christmas d\u00e9cor up would be when you first hear Christmas music on the radio; or if there\u2019s been a lot of snow towards the end of November. There are always going to be those houses which are completely set up a week before Thanksgiving. I get trying to get in good with Santa by showing Christmas spirit, but I just know those are the same houses that will have their house lit up well into January.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Who am I though? The Grinch? The right time to put up Christmas lights is whenever you have someone around to help you put them up.
