Stuck in Christmas Mode

Walking through the neighborhood, I noticed how many folks still have their Christmas decorations out. Come on people, today is Beer Can Appreciation Day...it's time to move on. :) It's also Compliment Day ~ so, I will say the houses do look lovely. But still, it seems like past time to take the wreaths down.
Beer can appreciation day? Really? Did you see the Object Challenge presented by Amy Hughes? It's under "Themes and Competitions". The object this week is "can". And since it is compliment day, the wreathed doors are lovely and I am shamed into going out and removing mine . . . right now!

Oh yes - my mum would never allow that - bad luck after the 6th! Lovely collage though.

Such a beautiful neighborhood, but seriously, it's time to celebrate the CAN! Hmmm. Maybe that will give me some inspiration for tomorrow. We never seem to have a shortage of those in our recycling bin. :)

Haha ..Name and shame. Lovely collage even though the wreaths shouldn't be there. Not now.

"Beer Can Appreciation Day" and the object challenge...I think you have given me some inspiration! LOL.

Lovely collage!

What a beautiful neighborhood you live in! You had me laughing at Beer Can Appreciation day and I suppose we should be thankful that there aren't beer cans decorating the lawns. :)

Christmas seems to come around so much earlier every year nowadays they probably don't think it's worth taking them down! Really nice collage, Peggy, and the houses look interesting, too.

@barbsmith @judithg @petersonsheri @emer @ellida @wwhite13 @girlie Thanks for agreeing with me! :) I'm not a judgemental person as a rule, and I would never say anything to someone with overdue decoration removal issues (except for Barb - it's time) ~ but really, it's almost Valentine's Day. :)

Get them all on track girl!!!! I love the collage.
January 24th, 2011

January 24th, 2011

January 24th, 2011  
Love this! We have been saying the same thing. C'mon people!

I love this! I had a poster in college of "The Doors of Chapel HIll" and was thinking about doing something like that around my neighborhood. This is exactly what I was thinking of! What is so amazing is that all these wreaths are still green . . .
January 25th, 2011  
lol, beer can day, move on...that cracked me up! I love your collage! Looks like such a quaint neighborhood!
January 25th, 2011  
Peggy, you made me laugh tonight and it has been awhile . Thank you crazy lady.
January 25th, 2011  
I loved Graham's comment. Name and Shame. Made me laugh. I am on your side, time to celebrate a current holiday and it appears to be the can... Great shots for the day. Love this collage.
January 25th, 2011  
Love your humor, Peggy! One year our family kept our tree up until Valentines day and the kids took all the christmas stuff off the tree and decorated it with hearts. This year they were trying to get me to do it again.........no way!! I am with you.
January 25th, 2011  
Cool collage
January 25th, 2011  
Lovely houses! Maybe they're waiting for the wreaths to get so dry they just fall apart.
January 25th, 2011  
I Love your photos.We never see snow I''ll add a view that we are soooo fortunate to have.
January 25th, 2011  
Oh my God. I just realized my Christmas wreath is still hanging on my house. lol!! OK, on my to do list for today.......
January 25th, 2011  
Haha--it's hard to let go of Christmas! That's why Hallmark created other holidays, lol

Ha! Too funny and darn, I missed Beer Can Appreciation Day! I just commented the other day on a house that is still lit up with Christmas Lights...go figure! Maybe they're just getting a jump on next year!
January 27th, 2011
