It seems forced to me, too. They should try being better people the rest of the year, then I'd be warmer towards Christmasnpanthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06873151776078498271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9544790.post-15297625823166032742011-12-07T13:55:44.556-08:002011-12-07T13:55:44.556-08:00I hear you!

Xmas Lists - Well, I can do that...and I NEED it from other people. Xmas decorations - I sort of skip that...I have my little tree and string of lights in the window, but that's about it! Shoppers - Ugh. No thanks.laura b.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15086009761943858915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9544790.post-22974039194682478242011-12-07T12:51:58.816-08:002011-12-07T12:51:58.816-08:00You are posting again!

I will stop by every day again hoping for a tidbit of your wisdom. :-)<br />I share all your dislikes and yes, the Christmas season can be a super pain in the ass, but there is so much joy in the planning and giving and celebrating. I know you love it too. How could you not. As for the music...well, just keep some rock going in your head at all times. Love you!!

I am not big on the commercialization of it because frankly I am always broke but the music and specially the movies are a fun part for me. On the religious side of things the season is very busy for us at church and it is the most important aspect of the season. Unfortunately for most it is the least important. In any case Merry Christmas to you and yours.Josehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17057386419079395375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9544790.post-15551150805849175562011-12-07T08:11:52.937-08:002011-12-07T08:11:52.937-08:00Manuel you are definitely a softie for Christmas b...Manuel you are definitely a softie for Christmas because of the gift giving. I feel like I might have ruined you in the Christmas music department. I love Christmas music.<br /><br />All your other points are valid and I think a lot of us feel the same way. Especially in the crowds, lists, and taking down of Christmas. I love decorating but it is so tiring taking it down. <br /><br />Love the post.Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18296947419976754339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9544790.post-79117598422497276142011-12-06T20:10:48.058-08:002011-12-06T20:10:48.058-08:00That video cracks me up every time I watch it!

Mostly though, I am so happy you can make fun of yourself.<br /><br />I think all of your reasons for disliking the season are valid; I share in a few too. Deep down though, you are a big Christmas softie and you know it!Miss Sassy Pantshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15669986653956419139noreply@blogger.com
