    They're still up. My wife and I are playing a passive agressive game of "lets see who can wait the longest before going nuts". Well, at least I'm playing. I think she might be oblivious to them.

    I just started taking them down today. I don't start feeling bad about it until we hit the Epiphany, but anything after is long overdue.

    New Years day
    Usually by New Year's Day but it's still up. Maybe tonight after P90X while I'm watching basketball. So it will probably be this weekend!

    we take ours down on twelfth night, which is the traditional time to take them down, in fact it is so traditional its older than the US, if you take them down before its bad luck,and if you DON'T take them down then, you are supposed to leave them up all year of its unlucky. I need all the luck I can get, so I stick with tradition lol After all, there are 12 days of Christmas, and even Shakespeare wrote about 12th night

    I never knew this! Going to start doing that from now on.

    If it was up to me my lights would be up all year long... I just love Christmas lights! I took mine down before the new year because I will be out of town most of January :( It was way too soon.
