It can be stressful this time of year . . . when it feels like we’re running from holiday to holiday. And not all the moments are as memorable as the ones that show up in the photos on social media.
A new survey measured the time spent behind the scenes, and found that, on average, people spend 34 HOURS of their lives untangling holiday lights.
Here are some other results:
We spend more than TWO DAYS of our lives decorating Christmas trees.
A day-and-a-half picking up or vacuuming pine needles from LIVING trees.
Two-and-a-half YEARS planning and preparing the main holiday meal.
And 164 weeks . . . or just over THREE YEARS . . . preparing for guests to arrive.
