Sorry to hear you are not well. Hope it clears up soon!

Exact same here, to my furious objections. I don't like taking them down before January 5. The song states 12 Days of Christmas, after all. I've actually finished the outdoor stuff, so now I am just waiting for kick off. On the plus side, it's in the upper 60's so it really is the perfect day to take down the outdoor stuff.

It kills me that the first day back to work after holiday vacation will be a drawn out, groggy mess since we have not only the Monday night game, but kick off is delayed until 8:30 because the Rose Bowl game is starting at 5 PM. So the max sleep I can get tonight is 6 hours, but it will certainly be less as, win or lose, I can't immediately fall asleep after the game. I'll either be jacked up from a win or agitated and grumbling from a loss. Either way it will take at least another hour before that wears off and I can actually get to sleep.
