Wy do people leave holiday lights & xmas trees on past New Years? Bad luck to shut off B4 new years but past?
I understand that many people believe that it is bad luck to shut down until after January 1st, but I always begin taking everything down on January 2nd. Even as I write this, I drive by neighborhoods with full outdoor lighting and a tree in the window. Is there something I don’t get?

The church calendar has 12 days of Christmas, starting Christmas Eve. (remember the song? The 12 days are AFTER Christmas,) High churches use this calendar; Roman Catholic, Lutheran, Espicopalian, Methodist, and perhaps others.
