Christmas decorations and music are so incredibly beautiful during the month of December. Isn’t it strange how they become so hideous and garish come January until the next December? No, that does not include Thanksgiving. Shopping is OK, decorations are not.
Alas, now everything looks so plain and barren with all the decorations put away, even though they are hideous. (Couldn’t resist.) Valentine’s Day is still pretty far off. That’s why I call this time of year “Snowman Season.” To make it seem fresh, I save all of the snowman-themed decorations until January. That way the house doesn’t look quite so bleak — or so uncluttered that it would freak anyone out. However, said decorations can’t look Christmassy like this one below. Yuck, right?
