[Chris shipley]

When do you consider holidays are over.and start putting everything away.... I'm starting tomorrow...

When the credit card bills start showing up in the mail.....  💲💲💲!!!!!

[kpcsgasp]

Traditionally I start the first weekend after the new year.

Anytime after New Year's Day, seems to be cool with the wife. And that's all that matters around here . If she's happy then I'm gonna go along with it.  It's that attitude that pays off with dividends later on 😂 so.....  I'm sticking with it !!

Catholics traditionally take down their Christmas decorations on January 7, the day after Epiphany. This is because the 12 Days of Christmas end on Epiphany, which is the day the Three Wise Men visited Jesus. 

But this is not a hard set rule and inreality people.

Don't have to take anything down if you don't put it up to begin with.

All the stuff in the house was taken down on Saturday. We leave the lights on the house until after new years. I’ll probably take those down on the weekend.

Per the manager: no later then two days after Christmas, it’s like it never happened here.

We could not wait until the 7th.Tree was dropping so many needles,I thought it was going to burn!! We have a tabletop tree to get us through to the 7th of Jan.(not Catholic, but follow that rule. Worst tree we have ever had in the house!!

I am with Frank, The Manager took it all down and boxed it all up. That leaves me just to put it all away above the GN, all done except waiting on a shipment of fresh wrapping paper. The wrapping paper bag will be the last box/bag to be put away for the season!!!   All is good in the neighborhood!!!!  lol

I was thinking that that was when the Mother-in-law moved in....... But the mirror theory works too.
