‘Tis the [early] season?

Okay, today is November 14th.  A little over a week til Thanksgiving, seven - count ‘em 7 weeks til Christmas.  So, tell me why are there Christmas lights adoring homes in the neighborhood?  Don’t get me wrong, I love the lights - in fact when they all come down, I’m a little bummed.  But seven weeks before?!  I’m looking forward to seeing the decorations, the lighting of the giant trees and the festivities, but let’s wait til it’s a little closer, please? 

 Amended text @10pm:  While walking the dog, I saw a house with a Christmas tree aglow with tiny white lights.  Please, STOP the insanity!!!
