It has been a cold winter, then a rainy spring, and finally, it turned too
hot to do any work outside. Last weekend though, had perfect weather so I
took down the Christmas lights.

Today, it is going to be 75 degrees and sunny. Won't be many nice days like
that so, I think I'm going to get a jump on the holiday and put up the
Christmas lights.

Good thinking, we plan to put ours up before the first frost, but for
us that is historically November 15.

I need to fix the roof, but it isn't raining right now.

I like the way you think, but the wife is still nagging me to get those
plastic Easter Eggs out of the trees! It hadn't been an issue til now since
the darn leaves are falling and she can see them again!

I paint my Easter eggs with sprigs of holly on one side, American flag
on the other. That way, they are multi-seasonal and stay up all year :o)

In all seriousness, the wires on Christmas lights won't last through
year-round sun exposure. Many sets have a warning label (one of
several) indicating that it shouldn't be left outside for more than 90
days. So wait at least a few more days before putting them up.

You should have practiced with your sling shot during the summer.

Sounds like a good use of your time and resources. I'm sure
I should do the same.
