Normally the weekend before and down before new year
But this year I'm really not feeling it. So can't decide whether to not bother or put them up earlier to try and feel more festive.
First year living alone  |

"Decorations up??
(I've forgotten the Santa emoji) "
Never now that kids grown up , hopefully the grand kids won't want me to put one up either
I don't understand the need to make the home look like a North Pole brothel once a year the blue tack and drawing pins ruin the walls .

I threw mine out when my youngest kid go to 12 |

My 1st year without the ex my stepdad went up in my loft & got my tree down. He refused to leave until I'd put it up for the boys. It was up for 8 days in total. |

I don't have decorations, and my first year after moving out I was working Xmas Eve and boxing day and relied on public transport, so I spent Xmas day alone getting d*unk |

I hate the run up to Christmas (which is a marathon) purely because it's dragged out over three months.
Once it gets to a week or so before I warm up to the idea, we haven't got room for a big tree so will probably have a small one up about a week or two before. |

"Simple... Never.
Vowed never to have them again after being burgled, the presents were taken and the tree branches were cut off."
Dafuq? 
Who burgles a house with a pair of hedge trimmers handy 
Sorry to hear that, my guess would be some lowlife gang doing it as a "trademark" |

The tree stays up all year round. We'll change the decorations on it every holiday. ( Champaign corks and party favors for New Years, Hearts for valentines day, eggs and bunnies for Easter.) You get the idea. |

Didn't bother last year as was away at my mums in Malta for Xmas and new year. This year if my daughter wants to put the tree up she can, if it was left to me I wouldn't bother, as we're off to Malta again after new year for our family Christmas, my mum will make a big Christmas fuss then  |

I'm thinking we might put tree up this weekend as I have just given the living room and dining room a good clean
Just the tree for now and put the other Christmassy stuff up over the week |

Same and to be honest if it wasnt for the kids they wouldnt go up at all. I loved them as a kid it felt magical seeing them up. But my dad destroyed anything good about christmas so by the time I was 10 or 11 I really couldnt care less about it anymore |
