we do not. we only put some wreaths up on windows outside. we're out in country and can't see our house from road, so no one else will see it and we'll be inside so we won't see it.

we do go pretty big inside. big tree, real of course. kitchen cabinets have lights and garland. christmas dishes are out. living room also has garland and lights in places, plus the books/photos on tv cab get replaced with about 40 nutcrackers (get a new one every year). kids all have their own trees in their rooms, plus some lights/garland/whatever they like for decorating. handful of other things as well around the house.

Last year, our town’s Facebook page handed out Christmas decorating awards and our house got “Most Whimsical.”  We couldn’t decide if that was a backhanded compliment or not. Lol.  But we don’t care. 

haha.. I'm not sure I would have known how to take that either.  As long as your family likes it

My guys just cut around all the stuff during October/Halloween.

These aren't "my guys". They work for the HOA so I have no real influence at all.

NOPE but inside Cindy truly has a gift for design/decorating.I thought that feng shui thingy was an oriental food truck - she gets compliments galore.Nobody credits me for the old school Pabst case the tree sits on every year though

we salute you, @MrNubbz 

don't look right w/o snow

I sometimes muse about how "we" humans like pretty colors and water falls.  I include me in that.

My wife likes jewelry.  I kid her that she has no more room for more of it.  What is the point of so much jewelry?  She's already married.  I wear a wedding ring, and a watch.    I do try and be semi-presentable in public.  She could wear the same stuff day after day and I'd not notice, nor would anyone else.  

If I see some woman with some huge rock I think she's just flaunting it for some kind of status.  We go to an occasional dinner with symphony donors and some of them do this of course, I know they are generally wealthy.  I don't care about their "status" one bit.  The men I've had occasion to chat with are usually MDs or lawyers.  Fine with me.  I just say I'm retired and leave it at that, unless they persist.

Why does a 60+ year old retired human worry about status?  Rhetorical, and I digress.

Why do people still wear watches?

I didn't for a few years. IIRC, my watch died and it just didn't bother me enough to replace it. 

Now I do, but it's a Garmin smart watch that is useful for tracking steps, exercise, heart rate, etc. I got that when I was hiking a ton, but then have found it useful for golf (GPS with distance to green), and for pairing my heart rate to my exercise bike so I can quantify how hard I'm pushing myself...
