Hi Lyn,
As you say, Christmas time has a different feeling for everyone and emotions
are all over the place.
Bereavements, meeting up again, etc.etc. I enjoyed Christmas as a child even
when finances were not good for Mum and Dad, there were, still, at least
pressies for me and my brothers to open and probably this was the same
situation for others too and I think that large pressies are not that
gratefully appreciated nowadays but times have changed of course and we have to
move with the times, don't we. I, along with my hubby nowadays try and not
make too much of a fuss about it and tend to think of it as a normal Bank
Holiday weekend for example, as we can meet up with relatives and family, eat
and drink and have a good time at any time of the year anyway and not myself
being very religious, we all know, Christmas was supposed to be a religious
holiday originally but it's O.T.T. time for some people and O.K., that's how
they, celebrate
with their kids and if we had children to spoil too, I bet my story would be
completely different.
TTFN
Sally

Hi All
Am I the only miserable devil on this list who absolutely hates Christmas with
a passion and is glad when all the unnecessary fuss is over and done with.
Sorry folks, I told you I was a misery, so feel free to agree hahaha. I just
can't stand all the fuss and the rushing around it entails and the question
which makes me cringe each time I here it is: "are you all ready?" Just my
opinion, no offence meant. Christmas has different meanings to us all and in
my case it will always have a shadow hanging over it because my dad died 3
years ago on Boxing day.
Best wishes to you all for the new year. Roll on summer.
