The “Water Cooler” is a feature on Claycord.com where we ask you a question or provide a topic, and you talk about it.
The “Water Cooler” will be up Monday-Friday in the noon hour.
QUESTION: When do you take your Christmas decorations down, and what date do you think people should take them down by?
Talk about it.
People should take them down when they feel like it. We are not the intrusive government…
I take mine down Jan 7th. I’m okay with other people deciding for themselves when they take theirs down.
Used to be after New Years, always seemed right timing.
What’s important is SAFETY, both ladder and your back.
Lifting or exerting force with your arm extended multiples stress to your back. Do Not over reach, get down and move the friggin’ ladder.
Take a few seconds to consider ladder placement, surface it’s sitting and take second look as you think, “what could go WRONG?”
Having a second person watching and holding ladder is a good idea.

We usually take them down after New Year’s but since these past couple of years have been horrible, we’ve left them up til almost the end of January. We live in a condo so all of our decorations are inside the house. Leave them up as long as you want it’s your home
I take my decorations down when I feel like it. I have no opinion about when others take theirs down because it is none of my business.
When the spirit moves me.
We will take them down when the Feds bring Covid to its knees. Oh wait, today it was announced that Covid is now the state’s problem.
In that case, we’ll take them down New Years.
Take them down?

New Year’s Day
or maybe the day after that
or maybe New Year’s Eve
or maybe tomorrow
or maybe _________________________
After New Year’s, allowing for a month or so to decorate for St Valentine’s Day. Others should take theirs down, if at all, whenever they see fit.
I wait until Gavin Gruesome tells me I can take it down, after he first consults with Brandon and Dr. Falsey.
Starting after New Years.
New Year’s Day..
I take them down New Years day, have done it for years and we have a fireplace and I burn a couple of branches in the fireplace to burn all your troubles away and start new.
We have 6 trees up this year. I’m ready to take them down now. But hubby complains.
