On my to do list. Not looking forward to it.

Dragonflower says,

Congratulations! I'm not sure what I used to do--could I have been one of those people who just left them up? I might have been! Cuz we always had lights at Christmas....oh dear...sorry neighbors of the past!

Please be careful. When I went to my class reunion, one of the women had died falling from a ladder putting up Christmas lights. I am SOOOO careful when I am on a ladder.

I had a scary experience last year with the ladder. As I was hanging the outdoor Christmas lights, I had the ladder leaning up against the garage/roof area. Apparently it was not slanted enough, and half way up, the ladder left the house and was falling backwards. Luckily my friends SUV was parked in the driveway, and I broke my fall hitting her SUV. Scary!!
