Merry Christmas to all the great writers and readers of this blog. I've had little time to comment but I do check in.
I agree with Diane - traditionally Christmas ended at the Epiphany or the Presentation (fourth Joyful Mystery of the Rosary). In our family, we kept the Christmas lights on until the Epiphany but I have noticed that some people keep them on till February 2!
Then there is a guy who puts them up the day after Thanksgiving (USA) and takes them down on St. Stephen's Day.
I guess he thinks that Boxing Day means putting the lights back in the box. Go figure.
Quoi qu'il en soit, Joyeux Noël à toutes et à tous!
Merry Christmas Pauli!! Thanks for that.
