Well, despite my many protests, apparently we're doing what I hate: Traveling to 2 different homes for Thanksgiving. We're going to my parents' for an early lunch, but then we have to go to my In-Laws so my wife and her mom can plan their Black Friday battle plans. Personally, after my parents', I just wanna come home and watch football and be fat.
As for Christmas lights, I did what I HATE to do...I put them up today. The weather is nice, and it's supposed to be crappy on Friday, so I put up the garland and lights. I'll do the balls on the big tree later though.
