Won't cost us nothing.

I love this idea. My lights are stored away now and it would be difficult for me to get to them and get them up without help, BUT I do have a couple of sets of solar string lights that I can put out on the bushes in my front yard.

I hate, absolutely hate to decorate for Christmas.  Way too much work.  So this isn't gonna happen at my house.

Right now our family is observing Lent.  It is not a time for lights or looking for ways to make us happy. It is a time to be solemn, fasting and prayer.  Easter is the most Important Holy day for Christians.  Easter Sunday is a day of celebration.  We plan on observing Lent and then Easter.

I think we could all use a little joy right now.  My outside lights run on batteries which I already have, so I think I may put the batteries in and put the timer on.  I know my neighbor across the street will enjoy seeing them.  I will be happy knowing I could give some happiness to others as we are on day 2 of "shelter in place".

We have Solar lights strung on our deck rails all year long. It makes me happy to look out there at night and ss them twinkling away!

The one day we had a nice snow, hubby turned the lights on.. these are the winter blue ones, we have multi colored around the other side..

This thread in its self has made me smile and has brightened my day!!

A few months ago, one of our neighbors over from us keeps multi colored lights on all the time..  I say, "Oh I see Christmas lights."  Nice touch in the middle of the night when you can't get the dog to come in LOL ..

I could be your neighbor!  We put multi-colored lights around the deck and on the grapevine tree at the end of November, and they are still up.
