It's Monday tomorrow - and on Friday, it's Christmas. I've not done any cleaning; any shopping or any present buying. Oh shit! It just doesn't feel like Christmas is coming. It doesn't even really feel like December. At least it didn't until this morning when the the ground was covered in a blanket of white - that is big, white hailstones the size of bricks that set off all the car alarms outside!
Is it just me that isn't really feeling it? Has anyone else had trouble getting into the Christmas spirit this year?
yeah, it's taken a while what with financial disaster and loss of jobs plus potential for loss of home, but now the tree's up and the music is about so xmas is around this neck of the woods at last.

Love your post title! One year I sent Christmas cards that simply said, "shit" at the top in pretty writing with a holly leaf. This is the first year I have decorated for Christmas and it is only because my in-laws are coming. My mother-in-law is a wonderful woman, but she puts a tree in every room and has separate dishes for Christmas. Thats a lot of pressure! Hope you find the spirit soon, or at least stop fretting over not having it.
ReplyDeleteI'm not feeling it either, and I'm in the exact same boat. We did do a little shopping yesterday, but we still have a lot to do. And wrapping. And cleaning. And cooking and baking. Ugh. One Christmas, I'll leave myself some time to actually enjoy this.
ReplyDeleteOh hun I feel like you, it is just so stressful realy, I have just completed 300 handmade christmas card tonight well finished at 2am for both me and my mum and I still have the family ones to make tomorrow lol. At the end of the day christmas will come no matter what we do so we should just enjoy it x
ReplyDeleteI've mentally checked out of this holiday season. We currently have almost 2 feet of snow, and I'm still not feeling it. I really just want to sneak off and watch basketball all x-mas day. How do we get rid of our bah-humbugs??
ReplyDeleteI was feeling Christmassy till this yucky cold set in :-( As in - I have a cold, as well as - it IS cold!
