Thread: Ding Dong Merrily or Bah Humbug?

So...christmas?

Feeling the love yet, or still not ready?

Personally, I'm not ready for this malarky yet for 2 reasons. A) it has been THE quickest year ever (I'm sure I say this every year...lol) and B) as I have a December birthday, it never really feels like I can get into the swing of xmas until I've had my birthday pass...

Also, I'm so broke and keep seeing pretty things I want including these: SUGAR O'lasted Mary Jane - High Heels - Shoes - Topshop

I have SO fallen in love with them *sigh*...I'm not cut out for this christmas lark

I'm a xmas baby as well. 3 days b4 xmas, and I love the xmas season (partaaayy time) and i strangely like all the snowy weather

:excited:



I also love watching all the christmas films, santa claus the movie, the grinch, that always gets me in the christmassy mood :grin:

Till last year I was pretty bah humbug about the whole event and we had low key christmasses for quite a while but last year my niece was old enough to know what was goingon and that absolutely made christmas for me It really is a time for Children rather than adults (not that I count as an adult most of the time!)

Quite a long story but I hate Xmas.....not in a bah humbug kind of way though and fully want people to enjoy it, just have my reasons.

Despite that, I keep seeing cute things to buy for some lil people I know.....

DING DONG!:twothumbs::love::twothumbs::love:

Christmas! Christmas!!! CHRRIIIIIISSSSSTTTTMMMMAAASSSS!!!!

:excited::excited::excited:

A month today. 30 days 30 days!!!

Starting to feel the lurve, but only because it has been mostly purchased and wrapped, and my boyfriend has, unusually, formulated this year's travel plan. So I have endeavoured to get the stressful stuff sorted out of the way before it gets busy, and I can actually enjoy it. (Otherwise it's hassle, things not done, stuff to arrange, while work goes frantic just before the break and I cry with dread and panic. That's happened before. But anyway...)

And I'm also hugely looking forward to my fortnight off. I really need the break.

Ah...well I had forgotten the holidays...:excited:

Off from the 23rd - not back til the 5th - i SO need this holiday...woohoo

And just found out now that I'm probably doing a lot of catching up with old mates this holiday season - 1st single xmas and new year in around 8 years (I worked this out last night...eek ) so I plan on enjoying it just the way I want to :twothumbs:

Sorry, but Bah Humbug! :yuk:

But, Lilly loves it, so I try to make the effort..... :help:

I don't look at "Christmas" as Christmas any more. I tend to look at it from a pagan point of view in that my/our ancestors were huddling on yurts or caves or mud huts etc and this was the "dead season" when they didn't know if they would survive the winter. I tend to start this on the 21st Dec (Yule) and finish around Imbolg.

On a lighter note, I was thinking about puting together a road show in the South using all the miserable gits that abound at this time of year and call it "HUMBUG A GO GO!":wallbash::censored:
