"The Holidays"

[TimeforMe]

I notice people start to use that term around this time of year. So.....does it give you a warm and fuzzy feeling or make you anxious about the work, $, stress, etc.

Me = warm and fuzzy

 

[DaisyD]

Warm and fuzzy for me! I don't stress over the holidays. I love them! Bring on the shopping, decorating, baking, wrapping, and everything else that goes with it.

 

[Oreo Cookie]

I love the Holiday Season, so I get the warm and fuzzy feelings.

 

[Grumpy's Wife]

It's my favorite time of the year. Oh, that sounds like it came right out of a song. I love all the comes with it. Especially the baking and wrapping of the presents. Gotta love it.

YEP - warm and fuzzy for me too!

 

[monarchsfan16]

It gives me the "can I please go to sleep until January 2" feeling
I'm not a fan of the holidays. My parents are divorced and my mom's remarried. I am at the mercy of a million different schedules and I hate it. The blended family thing is also a pain because we all had old traditions and my stepfather doesn't appreciate the ones we had. Ok, and I don't appreciate the ones they had either
The shopping is awful too. I never know what to get people and I hate the crowds.
And the latest complaint: I'm in college now. I finish finals only a week or so before Christmas. Talk about added stress...

For about 8 years I had a seasonal holiday business, so my holiday time was stressful. Last year my father passed away Dec. 1st. So between that and the business it was once again stressful and sad.

This year I decided I had enough. No more business ! I also have decided that I am keeping everything simple. So I'm hoping for warm and fuzzy this holiday season.

Warm and Fuzzy, I'm ready to lose the ghosts, pumpkins and Halloween Candy and put up the stockings, candy canes and start wrapping presents as we speak...

I the HOLIDAYS...absolutely Christmastime!!!

Since my DS' were older teens (college&highschool) we decided to travel. My family is scattered all over the country so we always travel somewhere.

This year we are headed to EUROPE and taking many family members!!!

I cannot wait. So for me...the HOLIDAYS also mean packing and heading out of town. One DS' bday is 12/30....so we celebrate Xmas, DS' bday and New Years and then return home!!!

Warm fuzzies for me, too!

 

[candykisses]

Warm and fuzzy for me.

The holidays are my favorite time of the year. I love everything about them. Oh, the decorating, the buying,the wrapping, the baking, the entertaining.

I save some of my vacation days so that I only work 3 days between Thanksgiving and New Years. I have a large Christmas club account and I married someone that loves the holidays as much as I do.

18 working days to go!!

 

[tiggersmom2]

[Fan2CSkr]

I love "The Holidays"! Warm and fuzzies for sure.

 

[bjgrazi]

I don't stress it, but I'm not warm and fuzzy over it either. For me it just "is". I do look forward to it being over.

 

[Aidensmom]

It's my favorite time of the year.

I love, love. love the holidays. I love buying gifts for people and decorating and baking and planning our dinner....

 

[Disney Doll]

Stress, because of all the craziness surroundng them...whose house are we going to when, what are we buying who?

 

[MINNIE OF TWO MICE]

Warm and fuzzy for sure. I love the holidays. We also usually vacation within the first two weeks of December. It is also the time of year that our family volunteers the most. We usually serve at least once at a shelter. Donate our old coats. We collect toys and clothes for the Baptist Childrens Village. My children got their school involved and now its huge. This is our favorite. We also donate biscuits on cold mornings a few times at a local shelter. The reason I am telling yall this is it is the most humbling thing you can expose your children to especially during the hustle and bustle of the holidays. My children usually cry tears of joy after delivering toys to the village. It sure made mine realize how blessed we are.

I realy look forward to Thanksgiving, especially this year. My grandson (21), who is in the Marines, is coming and the house will be filled with the wonderful aroma of turkey and all the trimmings.

For Christmas, he'll be back with his sister (17) and my daughter. We'll probably go out for dinner Christmas Eve and have Christmas morning together. They'll be spending the rest of the day with my ex so we'll spend the day at Epcot.
