ADMIT IT! The tree is still up!!!

horsewhisper91

Alright got the idea of this thread (not sure if another was started) because I see others saying about still having trees up. So whether they maybe fake or living trees....How many of you have your Christmas trees still up?!

My family still has their live tree still up! I'm just surprised how long it is lasting.

Never had one up. I avoid all holidays like the plague. Too much work for zero reward.

Nope, no tree. I got rid of it, erm...two weeks ago? XD

My fake tree is still up. I kept a live tree up until the end of January once and scratched the hell out of my arms when I finally dragged it out. Don't judge me :-(

I'll admit to liking seeing the tree still up. I like the colorful lights! :bigsmile:

I took the little tree in my room down a few days ago. I was gonna leave it up until after Valentine's Day cause it's pink, but I changed my mind.

I made hubby take it down right after New Years... after chasing a 2 year old away from it, and steadily moving ornaments up since Thanksgiving... i was done :laugh:

We never put our Christmas decorations up this year, since we moved cities in December. It slipped right under the rug basically!
Our decorations usually don't last past December though. c:

Mine is. Ever seen that Everybody Loves Raymond episode about the suitcase that nobody would carry upstairs? Yeah, right now that's my life, its a battle of wills between me and the hubs. I am honestly about to break though, even though I really hate losing.

Don't let a Christmas tree be your big fork and spoon

We had our Christmas January 5th and the tree was down January 5th

That made me literally LOL that is totally what the tree is going to become if I don't break soon, I swear I will just leave it up until next year to prove a point, I am wicked stubborn like that.

Always take it down Jan 1st.

Cp731

Took it down Jan 1, but last year I left mine up and decorated it with Valentines s@#t. I ended up squeezing the tree with lights still on it, Duct Taped the box up nice and tight. This year putting up the tree took hours to get all those stupid brokens lights off. I was sick of it before I put it up so I was in a major hurry to get it put away. Without the lights this time:ohwell:

Mine was down that evening =)lol

This episode always cracks me up!!! Mine came down right after the New Year!

AlongCame_Molly

Nope! Ours comes down no later than my son's birthday. (Jan 12th)

Our tree went into the attci today. Lots of reasons it stayed so long (husband out of town, cant carry heavy tree up tiny attic stairs, etc) but Im just glad it was undecordated for the last 2 weeks.

neuro_nut

Just came down today! Finally... I'm always embarrassed when it stays up until February

lunnay

Fake tree & decorations go up early as possible as long as it's after December 1st, come down January 6th.

lol, yes! I remember that episode, one of my favorites!

If you really want to get your husband thinking about the tree (if it is a living tree) leave pin nails around on the floor.

This. Except Halloween. I'm the *kitten* on my block that puts up decorations at the beginning of September and leaves them up until the week before Thanksgiving. I do not decorate for any other holiday.

BPayton27

Ours came down Jan 1 (like usual), but I already miss it.

Elleinnz

Lol - last year mine came down at Easter!! So this year I went to Thailand the day after Xmas, so did not bother to put it up at all ;-)

AmyEm3

No way, we have a live tree every year and it goes down around January 2nd or 3rd. I'm over the holidays at that point and want everything put away.

LilacDreamer

never put it up

I live in New jersey, and that b*tch, Sandy, sucked the life out of me.

kdeaux1959

Nope, went down around New Years

BinaryPulsar

Our tree is not still up (very small, fake tree). And the wooden painted stand that we made to hang the stockings on is taken down as well. But, the decorations that my children made out of paper are still up, and we have an earth globe on the table that the tree was on. Even though the tree is down, it's still in my profile photo (or at least, it is one of the photos I rotate in).
