Put the tree up today, but it's because I'm having Christmas this weekend.

Why the hell would you take the tree down on Christmas day!

We usually put up the tree like 2-3 weeks before Christmas. That's like all we do, as far as decorating is concerned.

I don't decorate for Christmas (I live alone, and get no real pleasure from decorating)
When I lived with my parents we put our decorations up on the first weekend in December, and took them down on Boxing Day.

Ugh. The day after Thanksgiving. A tradition that began when my girls were little & their dad & I were disgustingly syrupy with idealism. Happily divorced now & fully rooted in reality.
But the girls love it, even tho they're 16 & 18 now, so I do it. But I refuse to do it forever. It's way too much hassle & I'm an ex- - christian now so it's basically for their enjoyment. If I never saw another xmas ornament, it wouldn't be soon enough.

I don't.
Ever.
The most I do is put my "No carol singers" sign on the front door.

Traditionally we put the tree and decorations up the day after Thanksgiving. But it didn't work out this way this year. Plus, we do Black Friday shopping so we usually sleep the majority of the day after Thanksgiving now.
So I think from now on we will wait 12 days out from Christmas and then take it down 12 days after. According to my friend, taking it down before 12 days after is bad luck.

Oh, we're pretty late. We won't be getting our tree until the 21st this year and that's really about all the decorating we do.

I do on or after december first, depending on when I have free time.
This year cause december 1st is a sunday I'll do it all then. I'm kinda tempted to starting doing my outdoor lights now and not turning them on til the first just so its done
