OH, crap....today Sherri is going to work.

Her: Which of these boots look best with this?
Me: The light ones.
Her: Are you sure?
Me: Yes.
Her: Really?
Me: NO, wear the dark ones how could such an obvious choice have eluded me?

He decorates but no where near what he does for Halloween. My towns population doubles for one night. Everybody and their brother drops their munchkins off to trick or treat.

I have a little dried flower Christmas tree w/lights on it in a white plastic bag. Bag comes of at Thanksgiving, goes back on after New Year's. That is the extent of my Halloween and Christmas decorating.
