When do you take down your Christmas decorations?

I hate this time of year when you have to take down the decorations but once January is here I just think they look wrong.I know its not the 12th night and all that but from January 1st I am always itching to get them down,for me January is the beginning of a new year I don't want to see Christmas,think of Christmas as much as I enjoy it they have to go.

On saying that I will miss their subtle glow in the evenings their gentle twinkling on a dark winters night the house will look bare for a few days but it has to be done so today I took the bull by the horns and dismantled everything.

Wasn't to hard this year I had no tree didn't think it was worth the hassle with a 9 month old kitten.It was just twigs and fairy lights and both my fires decorated. Still if we didn't put them away we wouldn't enjoy putting them up again would we?
