Have you started yet?



I am going to start this weekend for presents and new decorations.



My kids are giving this Santa subtle hints.

Not yet, but should be soon ! I wanna start with a 6' Christmas Tree complete with nice decors and lights ! oh, i'm excited !

@realAzhyaAryola

I'm excited about it too this time. For the first time I'm planning to put the tree up right after Thanksgiving. I always mean to but never have.

I have done most my shopping on Amazon, and have taken care of 9 of the 15 presents I need.

Still have to figure out what to get a few others, bot sure what.

I have a gift to get an older Japanese woman with diabetes, so no candy  :?:  :?:  :?:

I have been ordering more the last few years, it's a lot less stress, and safer in my opinion.

If we had a snow storm shopping online would be a perfect thing to keep from getting bored :)

This year I'll be starting my shopping on Dec. 22nd. Last minute, baby! It's a Christmas tradition of mine.

Frost

LOL deals galore about that time, but the people in the stores, Ill stay in my cave. lol

OMIGOD?? I'd have heart failure if I did that. Do you decorate at home or do you go out for the holiday?

Christmas used to be a huge deal but it got to be too much. Nothing but shopping, decorating and running around all over the place. No decorating now and minimal presents. It's so much nicer to just relax and be with family.

Sorry, had to do some work!



I work in the office of a logistics company downtown. I'm 45 and I was born in Vancouver. I have a sister who lives in New Zealand working in the tv/film industry.

So many families are dysfunctional. I'm glad to say my wife and our few children all overseas are the only ones we focus on. We get joy out of phoning them all. No Christmas shopping much at our place. I take my wife out for dinner to The Pasta House usually. This year a 3D movie would be good as well at our new Landmark Cinema.
