  Well, I used to do my share of making the electric Coop some serious dollars,,and if it wasn' for the 7 year old Grandson, I prolly wouldn't put up any lights outside,,,  I never used to take down the outside lights as there were just too dang manyWink But when They replaced the shingles earlier this year we had to take em down, no choice, and NOW,,I don't want to put em back up and told my Son,, if HE want s some lights for HIS boy,,then there are all he wants in the garage in two big boxes,,,,LOLLOL
 I still ain't made up my mind on the inside decorations and don't know about that 28 piece Christmas village,,,,??

Got the outside lights put up Friday, my job to do them. Wife has been working on the inside trees (3 of 'em!) and the knick-knacks she has sitting around for most for the weekend. Got accused for stealing one set of her lights for use outside, not me! The sets I have are labeled for were they go so the length is correct. Still don't know what happened to the missing set, we use a set of net light lights (for bushes) on the basement 1/2 tree, ended up looking decent. 

Got 3 "dusk to dawn" timers for each set of outside lights/displays, problem is they are all facing the setting sun at different angles so turn on at different times.
