So the Christmas season is upon us. I do not like Christmas. I haven't liked it for a very long time. I am not a scrooge, I like to give people things I think they will like. I like to have people over for a big meal and some laughs, maybe a glass of wine. I don't think we should see decorations out until Thanksgiving, radio stations shouldn't play Christmas music until Dec.
But when more of your childhood Christmas' were ruined because someone had to much to drink or decided they had better places to be than with the people they claimed were the most important in their lives. You kind of lose the rose colored glasses and see the holiday season as something to be avoided. Oh and I have heard it all, you need to get over your child hood, you need to be happy for the kids, blah blah blah blah. Well there are some things from being a kid that I have gotten over. I think this will take a little bit more time.
As of right now, the tree is up and is kind of decorated. The moon and the stars did it so the whole bottom has decorations. The top is kind of lacking but I think it gives it character. Santa and Mrs. Claus' laundry is hanging up, the stockings are up, wrapping paper bought, gifts bought, and I am considering buying a wreath.......
That is as good as it is getting this year. If anyone one wants more they are going to have to come over and do it themselves. Maybe next year the hubby will convince me that it is worth getting all geeked up over........until that day this is all anyone will get for Christmas................
