Like it or Not

Yard Decorations
Tequesta, FL
November 17, 2025

 The Christmas season is upon us!

During my ride yesterday, I noticed that many yards are displaying Christmas decorations. The transition to the season, while skipping over Thanksgiving, is definitely underway. 

Chris and I are in the midst of our own multi-day decorating transformation. Ugh. During the past two days we have managed to get through 10 of the 12 Christmas containers. We still have not tackled exchanging the daily use dishes for the holiday ones--that will happen today. 

I am miffed that Thanksgiving was effectively shut-out of its rightful holiday place this year. I was unable to secure a new turkey for my collection and with the exception of my large turkey decoration, Christmas has taken over. I understand that it is a necessity given our travel schedule as we will only be home for about two weeks during December before returning north for Christmas. But still, I am missing the fun that Turkeys bring without all of the associated demands of some other holidays.

Regardless, it should be a fun and busy Tuesday. The weather is expected to be fantastic. I am especially looking forward to the high of 83 because the humidity is low. Who knows, maybe Happy Hour on the beach!
