I decided not to post anything about the holidays before the holidays because I didn't want to further bum anyone out who was already kinda bummed out.
I hate Christmas.
Well, maybe I don't hate it, I just don't care for it. Christmas is just....meh. Why?
I have no children. This is stating the obvious. Christmas is such a child centric holiday and I just feel left out most of the time. I also have no nieces or nephews to dote on (although I'm still unsure if I will be able to muster the grace to dote on nieces or nephews when that time comes)
I don't get any presents. My family has evolved from presents to trading names to trading gift cards to nothing. We decided that spending time together was more important than gifts. The only problem is that we forgot that we really don't enjoy each other's company that much.
I hate the coworker-gift-dance-of-awkwardness. It's obvious to me that some folks enjoy buying gifts for their coworkers. I'm just not into it. If you get me a gift, then I have to run out and get you a gift. I hate it when someone gives me a gift and I haven't gotten them anything. Gift giving at the office is like orgasms. It's best when it happens simultaneously.
I think that the best I can say about the holidays is that they are over and I survived. I hope you did too!

I hear you. Here's to surviving with as much of our sanity intact as possible.

Glad that's over! Now on to the more enjoyable adult holiday of New Year's Eve!
I have kids and I still hate Christmas. Everyone said I'd start to like it when I had kids and it hasn't happened. So much unnecessary STUFF, so much wasted money... and I find it so annoying to have to return holiday greetings. Ugh. And I didn't get any gifts either... .
Amen. Christmas without children sucks. But, to be honest, Christmas with a gaggle of sugar-hyped, exhausted, screaming children (none of whom are yours but are your nieces/nephews so you have to love them) isn't any better.
Christmas with my family is always more drama and tension than anything else. Here's to 362 long days until the next time we have to suffer through it!
"Giving at the office is like orgasms. It's best when it happens simultaneously."
Brilliant statement!
All the rest...yes, understand completely.
I'm sorry it was so unenjoyable. Hopefully New Years is more your speed. If not then at least it's 11.5 months til it comes around again!
Christmas......I really like the tree and cookies. That's about it. Hope 2012 is a wonderful year for you and please update us on your puppies.
Love your discussion of gifts. Personally, I could care less if I get anything. At this point, we buy what we want when we want it. I especially hate getting gifts that we won't use or don't like from family - ask me for a list of ideas and pick something off of it.
I shouldn't laugh but couldn't help it when you said "we don't like spending time together" That made me smile.
Glad you survived the holidays...as sanely as possible.
It's funny, but the "I don't get any presents" rankles with me far more than you'd think it would. I got two presents this year from family that involved people spending FAR more than they ought to have, and I am horrified and I feel guilty (and even my husband spent way too much and I feel bad about that). So I definitely know that I don't want to be spoiled, and not everyone in my family has the time or resources to get something for everyone...just the thought would be nice, you know? A CARD. A piece of chocolate. A Christmas ornament. Something. Because I buy presents for SO MANY people and I don't get to see them opened and there's never much under my tree and we look like a fake family and it makes me sad.
I loved your analogy: "Gift giving at the office is like orgasms. It's best when it happens simultaneously."
I laughed so hard, I nearly peed myself!
Only 360 more days until the next holiday. I hope it will be better for you (and a lot of us).
I'm here from Mel's weekly round-up
just catching up. glad you survived. and i totally agree about the gifts. i think that people should just get together and eat. and drink, of course!!
I totally hate Christmas too. Worst holiday for me by far! On to a good 2012... Cheers!
I know you posted this a couple of months ago, but I have difficulty with Christmas, too...or really, just the month of December in general: http://alifeinordinary.blogspot.com/2011/12/silent-december.html

Without DR DAHIRU a lot of people would have been dead through heart break. My case is not different from heart break, I am married woman with 3 kids and there was a time when i was having problem with my husband because he was having an affair outside our marriage and this was making me feel bad. So i tried finding solution to my problem by reading a lot of relationship tips on the internet and that was how i came in contact with DR DAHIRU contact details and through the help of DR DAHIRU at arewaspecialistttemple@gmail.com my husband left the girl he was having affair with and he came back to me and our kids. After a job well done by DR DAHIRU i felt that it will be unfair if i keep this secret to myself and that is why i am going to drop the contact details of DR DAHIRU right now,or you can also reach him via this email: arewaspecialistttemple@gmail.com
Husband left me and my kids, i was passing though pains, sorrow, heartbroke, going crazy but this is how i restored happiness back in my life by getting my husband back. I’m Tiffany Wilson from UK. I'm happily married to a lovely and caring husband with two kids. A very big problem occurred in my family seven months ago,between me and my husband .so terrible that he took the case to court for a divorce. he said that he never wanted to stay with me again,and that he didn't love me anymore.So he packed out of the house and made me and my children passed through severe pain. I tried all my possible means to get him back,after much begging,but all to no avail.and he confirmed it that he has made his decision,and he never wanted to see me again. So on one evening,as i was coming back from work,i met an old friend of mine who asked of my husband .So i explained every thing to him,so he told me that the only way i can get my husband back,is to visit a spell caster,because it has really worked for him too.So i never believed in spell,but i had no other choice,than to follow his advice. Then he gave me the email address of the spell caster whom he visited.{Templeofloveandprosperity@gmail.com}. So the next morning,i sent a mail to the address he gave to me,and the spell caster assured me that i will get my husband back the next day.What an amazing statement!! I never believed,so he spoke with me,and told me everything that i need to do. Then the next morning, So surprisingly, my husband who didn't call me for the past 7 months,gave me a call to inform me that he was coming back.So Amazing!! So that was how he came back that same day,with lots of love and joy,and he apologized for his mistake,and for the pain he caused me and my children. Then from that day,our relationship was now stronger than how it were before,by the help of Dr Frank Ojo a spell caster. So, If you have any problem contact him, I give you 100% guarantee that he will help you, Thanks to Dr Frank Ojo for bringing back my husband ,and brought great joy to my family once again, so here his email address { Templeofloveandprosperity@gmail.com } Website address: http://lovespell2.yolasite.com, His Mobile number: +234)80- 7237-0762, He is a super natural Human and he is the best spell caster online contact him if you have any problem.

I was married at 32 and immediately tried to get pregnant. When I was unable to conceive I had blood tests for fertility and was told that I had an FSH (follicle stimulating hormone) of 54 and would not be able to have children. Even though the doctors knew that I had been diagnosed with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis since age 25, no one bothered to check my thyroid levels. my TSH was measured at .001. My Synthroid dosage was lowered. a friend advise me to contact a spiritualist who help with fertility with his medicine, i collected his contact and explain my situation to him he prepared for me a herbal medicine which i took as describe by him. became pregnant very quickly, I had a successful pregnancy. I have my baby august 2017. to get pregnant at age 35 with my 2nd child in september 2019, thank you sir , this is his email contact if you require his help babaka.wolf@gmail.com or Facebook at priest.babaka
My husband and I have been married for about 7 yrs now. We were happily married with two kids, a boy and a girl. 3 months ago, I started to notice some strange behavior from him and a few weeks later I found out that my husband is seeing someone. He started coming home late from work, he hardly care about me or the kids anymore, Sometimes he goes out and doesn't even come back home for about 2-3 days. I did all I could to rectify this problem but all to no avail. I became very worried and needed help. As I was browsing through the Internet one day, I came across a website that suggested that Dr jeffrey can help solve marital problems, restore broken relationships and so on. So, I felt I should give him a try. I contacted him and he did a spell for me. Two days later, my husband came to me and apologized for the wrongs he did and promise never to do it again. Ever since then, everything has returned back to normal. I and my family are living together happily again.. All thanks to Dr jeffrey . If you need a spell caster that can cast a spell that truly works, I suggest you contact him. He will not disappoint you. This is his E-mail:

I am very grateful to this great spell caster who brought my ex husband back to me. This testimony is an amazing one and my name is Renato Sanchez. When i came in contact with this man it was also through a testimony written about him and i have also encountered many testimonies about how he has been helping others with their life. To get back with an ex is one of the most inner most feeling many people would love to experience especially as those memories with our ex always cloud our mind when someone else does some of those things our ex used to do. I was a single parent for almost 6 years and though my ex husband was far away from my kids i still wish someday he will return back to me. This spell doctor i encountered known as Doctor UZOYA helped me with my wishes and i am happy to say that i am back with my ex husband and i am very happy sharing the testimony with everyone so that they too can meet this great doctor and solve their problems. his contact address; driraborspellcaster@gmail.com OR call his Whatsapp number on +1(301)909 8775. thank you so much Dr,UZOYA
