Christmas - yes or no (v.3)

Every November, I go through this same routine. I hate Christmas, I don't want it to come, it's too expensive, too stressful, too - you know, Christmassy. I was like this last year, remember? And the year before.
And because I've been through this routine before, I know it'll change come mid-December when the Christmas Radio Times is in the shops and all will be well with the world. Just you wait and see. I'll even come back and blog it.

  3. Shopping online means I avoid the October appearance of early Christmas offers and pre-Christmas marketing but the town's lights were put on last Sunday so now there is no getting away from it. Christmas cometh.

    Paradoxically though I have got all my Christmas shopping completed today and feel smug.

    Flaming Nora, I too hate christmas. It just seems so greedy and needy and somehow sad for too many people. I never like being forced to do something, and for the record, I'm a very generous gal, but please! the Pressure all at once ~ just damn it all! But, I will be forced to participate and will do so somehow anyway.. year after year..after year.

    I hear you ... I too hate Christmas and really only liked it when I was a very small child. For the past several years, I have managed to "opt out". And it's great!!! I don't believe in being forced to spend money on something that should be pleasurable, but isn't ... By the way, I enjoy your blog very much!!!
