Be Excellent To Each Other

One hot July a few years ago I suddenly noticed the huge ‘Merry Christmas!’ banner we still had handing in the living room and somehow didn’t pay any attention to for seven months.

We took ours down in New Year’s eve, though D has decided he’s keeping his tree up until June 25th

Fuck the 12 days crap but trees and decorations should be left up until New Year's Day at least, bloody heathens.

Correct. Usually the first available day after New Year is when they come down. Which is annoying when it falls on a Monday

All ours were put away yesterday. Tricky getting the trees back in their boxes.

Well that was sort of the problem. The next day we had plans to go out and then school and work started back up (and we put that time aside to take down the MEGA TREE). But really I don’t have many New Years ‘things’ but one thing I do like (if I have my choice) is a nice clean, empty space. It makes me feel more hopefully and like there is opportunity in that extra bit of room once the decorations are down. But if D said he wanted to keep them up until later, I would. As it is he just wants to keep his own tree up, so that works for the both of us
