Do you decorate for the holidays?

This year I haven't even put up a tree, just can't be bothered. When I was growing up, my mom loved decorating the house. My dad wasn't into it, but I fell in line with my mom all the time, so I'd often help make decorations and help set up the tree. My mom still does all of that at her home, but my traditions have kinda been slacking these past few years. Since I currently live alone, I see no point in setting up decorations or a tree. But do you? I like having a tree up, because it does remind me a lot about past Christmases, but I don't have many gifts to put under it. Maybe when I have a family of my own, I will change it up. But for now, I don't really bother. What about you?

Yeah, I decorate every year. I enjoy it. I guess it is part of my creative outlet. I like to organize, decorate, and just generally make things with my hands. I am very much into DIY and crating. I think this is cause I grew up with my mom always doing arts and crafts with me.

I don't go over the top or anything with it but I have a few boxes of things that I put out each year.
