Are you getting ready for Christmas yet

[Anonymous]

Hello everyone, we will out up our tree and all decorations tomorrow..



I have got almost all my Christmas shopping done, but I did start months ago..



Next weekend I will start my Christmas baking..



Has anyone else began preparing for Christmas?

I'm done shopping unless I just have to get something else.

I might wrap stuff this weekend, not sure yet. :)

Most everything I got was from online so it was easy except gift ideas.



I hope the tree is pretty there :) I only have a small one in a bucket already decorated  ac_dance

Yeah, I got some cool toys for my son. I was going to buy my husband a restored 1970 Dodge Dart, but it was gone by the time I saw the ad. I am looking for a project care for him. I have something in mind for Mommy. Daddy is getting a lump of coal. acc_angry

I actually agree with this. I don't "hate" Christmas but I "hate" all the commercialization of it. I want a solemn Christmas with family and friends too and enjoy a warm time of being kind to one another and giving each other presents (that were carefully thought out, not picked out from the corridors of the mall because it was already wrapped) and having a warm gathering. I don't enjoy all the Christmas songs being played at the malls. I prefer to listen to Christmas hymns by choral groups. That's just moi.

I remember when I was all sweetness and light like you are now. I remember having the same outlook as you, Fash.

I still like Christmas but not the commercial part of it, how they push it just so you will "be moved."

inadvertently so.....when you become divorced the first thing you come to realize is that family life will never be the same again....no more family holidays, vacations or gatherings with inlaws....as a guy your friends, family and kids generally view you as the bad guy......the kids tend to feel sympathy for their mother particularly at holiday times and if they have to choose where to go they go there......that is why i find holidays boring as there is little to do over christmas, easter, thanksgiving etc....not whining just answering your question.......... ac_dunno
