for the grinch to show up and take care of all the Christmas decorations? I just can't motivate myself to put all this crap away. The neighbors won't start talking until Valentines Day, will they?  |

Just do what I do every year and burn your house down. Sure it pisses off the landlord but WTH.

Do what we did. Get a puppy. Ours took the ornaments off of the tree one by one before Christmas.

Well... I don't think our insurance would justify "didn't want to pack up Christmas crap" as a reason to pay out to our mortgage holder. Those darn bankers always want their money  ! |

I usually take down the stuff when my husband is at work and I have my day off, but he took that day off last week and I can't get anything done when he "supervises" so it will have to get done on Mon. I really want it gone since he keeps turning the lights on and I am embarrassed by it. Why can't he just leave them off until I get the chance to take them down?

Glad to know there are other out there! ;D And DS requires the lights to be on all day too!  Although, I did start rounding up all the stuff around the house... Maybe I'll finish up tonight and tomorrow. |

Yeah, it's just the whole motivation problem. We're supposed to be getting some snow this week, so I'll be stuck inside and can't avoid it.
Lil - If we had the room I would definitely leave it up! But since we've got kids, their toys just overtake the whole house, and I'm sick and tired of it being out of sorts!

I decided that since the only lights I put up are blue, they can stay around the bar for quite some time.

I just meant that we didn't decorate at all this year ....but, we don't have kids yet, or family that visits, so we can get away with that |

 @ both of you! No fair! However, our 3 year old really got a kick out of it this year... it's *almost* worth the trouble.
