A long, public display of your Christmassy state of mind
There are general rules on Christmas or holiday decorations. Recycle the tree, if it’s a cut one, by the first week of January. Take down the lights and the front-door wreaths. Store away the Christmas signs, the reindeer, the inflatable Santas or snowmen. But there are always stragglers, including a couple in my neighborhood who are still going full blast with their majestic yard displays — timelines and decorum be damned. I’m not-so-secretly cheering them.
