A couple of years ago Ryan mentioned tree recycling to take care of Christmas trees at the ends of their lives. Of course if you’re using a patriotic tree it’s possible your tree is already down. But now I’m curious: are you still rockin’ around the Christmas tree, if you had one up?
I will admit that today is Tree Take Down Day here, but it’s pretty late in the season.

Oh no, my tree is still up. I blocked out the entire month of retail hell December. At this moment, I am eating dinner next to my lit tree.

We had ours up early this year — first weekend in December — but also kept it up pretty late. We kept it up until last Thursday since the in-laws were in town and we celebrated a late Christmas with them.
I always notice in the week or so after the decorations come down and people stop turning on their outside lights that I really kind of miss them. I like being out at night taking the dog for a walk and seeing Christmas decorations. Even the obnoxious ones.

We took our tree down on the 30th or 31st of Dec. It’s probably already been recycled into mulch by now.
