christmas is great, however it annoys me that the reall meaning of christmas has been lost,
it wasnt comercialised by christians but funilly enough the comercial persons - Dont get me wrong I enjoy the christmas hype but hate xmas and that sort of slang, and I like presents, and its the one time of year I actually get to treat myself, or have other people treat me and its its nice |

I thought I was the only one feeling lousy this time of the year. Loads of unwanted presents, people comparing and checking how much to spend on the basis of how much he spent on me last year...
I like watching the kids enjoying their presents mind, and to me that's what christmas is all about, but as for the rest, humbug! Only a selling ploy. ![]() |

I don't enjoy Christmas nowadays but i really can't think why, i would love to enjoy it as i used to years ago especially when my son was little but i just can't get into it now, don't get me wrong i'm not tight or begrudge the spending or the work involved & would willingly spend my last pound on anyone in the family, I used to enjoy everything, the planning, shopping, wrapping, giving, peeling the veg with a bevy or three, cooking etc etc but that has all disapeared & i can't think why, we still have a family get together but it's not the same, maybe it's just me. Dear Santa, how do i get to enjoy Christmas again????? |

Agenda for my xmas: Wake up, go through christmas stockings with gf and her cousin (who will be staying with us). Nice light breakfast, then gf drops me at my church and then she and her cousin to her churchs. Meet mum at church, who gives me a lift back to my parents' place. Alcoholic Coffee and presents there, then lunch. More drinking with the family till about 5.00, when my gf will come and pick me and my parents up and take them over to her parents' house. Exchange of presents, more food, lots more drink and some games (call my bluff, etc.) then gf takes my parents home and returns me and her cousin back to our house.
Gf is tea-total hence her doing all the driving. ![]() |
