I do like xmas traditions!
I'm not not keen on the whole jesus and motley crew bit, religion never sits well on my shoulders (especially not with this sunburn...)
But I do love putting a tree up! All the colour and splash! The finding bits that have gone AWOL, accidentally stepping on great grandma's last delicate glass ornament, getting tangled in tinsel or having to check the whole 'bloody' string of lights to find the one loose one that's stopping all the rest from working!
It's just magical!
I also like watching, "The nightmare before xmas", the night before xmas. It's so cute and I can sing along to all the songs. Which is either a good thing or just sad, depending on your life outlook.
And there's presents! I find if I even just have one, it makes the whole of xmas worthwhile. I'm a firm believer in not opening your present(s) until xmas morning and have the will power to keep mine when everyone else savages theirs pre-dawn.
For me Xmas is a time to feel gratitude for the people in your life. The gift is to say, hey you, thank you for being there, I love you.
So now I'm off to sing carols to myself and stare at the nifty tree and feel all very warm and gooey!
Bugger the cynics - I LOVE XMAS!!!
