Have you seen (or do you still have) anyone with Christmas lights still up?
I saw some today. Plain white icicle lights.

Re: Christmas lights still up?
Some people leave them up all year and just turn them on at Christmas time- gotta love that! 
Ours were down right after New Years - there was a warm day in there that week so DH took advantage of it to take them off the house

Re: Christmas lights still up?
Ugh we do! It's really not our fault though, we live in PA and have not had a weekend without rain since Christmas except this past Sunday but my inlaws came up. Tomorrow it's not supposed to rain, so they will be down finally!

Re: Christmas lights still up?
Walking along Park Ave in the city last night I saw 2 trees still up in apartments.
And along another walk a nursing home still had decorations up in their hallway.

Re: Christmas lights still up?
I still have two copper stars in my kitchen window that I keep up for a while.
They are Swedish stars and are a welcome light for the dark nights of winter.

I noticed that up until about a week or so ago- I think they have them on a timer and don't bother to unplug it.

Re: Christmas lights still up?
Most near me came down this past weekend. There are a few people who still have their lights up and on. I personally love the lights because it is so incredibly dark at night where I live that I really welcome the lights.

Yes, I've seen quite a few houses with lights and all the decorations still up. Last night drove by a house that still had their tree lit up, in the front window of the house.

Re: Christmas lights still up?
No, just my wreath. I keep it on until it dies, usually by the end of January.

There are two houses on my block, which is not a very long block- only about 1/10 mile long, that still have lights.

I just took mine down two days ago. It's been a rough January with kids being sick! But I still see a lot of them up around town.

2 houses by me still have on their lights, including their holiday blow ups on the lawn. DD says every day that we pass, "don't they know Christmas is over. Should we bring them a calendar" lol.

Re: Christmas lights still up?
No we took them down before school started back up, but I see plenty of lights and deflated inflatables around. Each time, I sing the Grechen Wilson song in my head:
I'm a redneck woman and I ain't no high class broad
I'm just a product of my raisin' and I say hey y'all and yeehaw
I keep my Christmas lights out on my front porch all year long..

Re: Christmas lights still up?
Yes! Mine are still up AND my DH keeps putting them on. We are officially the white trash of the neighborhood. LOL DH had surgery so he hasn't been able to get up on the ladder to get them down but we don't need to be turning them on for God's sake! I'm hoping he takes them down this weekend. It's embarrassing.

Mine are up but not on. We are doing better this year. One year we had a wreath up until May and the lights were battery operated on a timer so they still went on.
I now threaten my DH when I feel the lights have been up too long.

A house around the block still has their outside lights on. I will admit they make me smile when I drive by at night.

Re: Christmas lights still up?
I would like to add that mine are NOT on a timer. They are on a switch. He says he accidentally turns them on when he goes into the coat closet. Now, he goes in that closet several times a night so are the lights going on then off then on then off like the hall light? My guess is probably.
