Good call man.
Talked to the family about it today. tryin to get them to make christmas dinner together as a family instead.

Angelo · 11-28-2009, 08:17 AM

i love my family very much, and we are having a few of them over from christmas,
my mothers family lives many hours from us, so its good to see them again.
so that part of christmas i enjoy.
the family time

but since i have a eating dissorder the medal has a black side,
there is going to be so much food!
all day, every day.
blah, i hate gaining weight in the christmas week
last year i was very sick and tried to end it all.... :/

so my mind is set up to that this christmas is going to be GOOD!

merry christmas and happy new year to all

Christmas, like any other holiday, is what you make it.

**SageTree** · 11-30-2009, 11:57 AM

I just tell my family that I am spending their money for gifts on charity and they are pretty cool with that. Most agree they have enough 'stuff' and that they are glad I could do something with the money they never had or thought to spend their own on.

This isn't to say I don't buy them gifts throughout the year when we go places. They are lovers of coffee mugs and t-shirts, and that suites them just fine to get during the year, rather than as a Christmas present.

My wife and I, personally, celebrate the winter solstice. Although I usually go to a candle light service on the 24th, and celebrate the birth of JC on the day it was placed, as well as to honour my ancestors who have worshiped Him, before me.

christmas is awesome. it's finally getting colder down here and a sense of christmas spirit just seems to pervade the entire city. i love it

**SageTree** · 12-01-2009, 10:23 AM

Finally it was -12c this morning. I'm loving in. Finally feeling like the season I know.

Bearsy · 12-01-2009, 12:41 PM

We had snow for the first time this season. December 1st. Oddly fitting I guess.

**SageTree** · 12-01-2009, 01:06 PM

It was -20c as the high and 4ft of snow last year at this time

yo. · 12-01-2009, 04:35 PM

it would be MUCH better celebrating it the traditional way.
no presents, just family and shroomzzz

id say.

not only the consumerist deal, but i mean, all those lights that are just there, building up the hydro and feeding the night sky more light pollution.. like, if some people would just realize that xmas isnt about out doing your neighbours display... maybe atleast a little energy would be saved and just little things like that, that build up to one big deal eventually...
