When are you all taking the trees down?
i can't sleep so i took mine down 2 hours ago, then spent half an hour sweeping up pine needles.

took the tree down yesterday - then spent far too long hoovering up needles. The nice thing about taking all the decorations down is that for at least one day, your house looks bigger and brighter!"Harry, I'm going to let you in on a little secret. Every day, once a day, give yourself a present. Don't plan it. Don't wait for it. Just let it happen. It could be a new shirt at the men's store, a catnap in your office chair, or two cups of good, hot black coffee."0

My tree was down on New Years Day...I cant wait to put the decs up and then I cant wait to get back to normal and take them all down again lol0

We have nothing to take down - didn't put any decorations up. We once still had them up in March because neither of us could be bothered to fetch the boxes down etc. Now we just don't bother.Touch my food ... Feel my fork!0
