Xmas Spirit

[eve1974]

Anyone feel decidedly less festive this year?

Even less than last in fact?!

Even the shops n town centres seem less “Christmassy”?

Or is it just me?

I'm feeling festive. Just got back from shopping and shops full to bursting. I love Christmas even if I do miss loved ones quite badly at this time of year, but it's always been 'magical' to me. Looking forward to my Christmas Dinner at the local pub with friends and I've already earmarked what I want to watch on TV ! I'm definitely with you Bobbs.

Can't image feeling "less festive" than I ever did. Xmas is pants!

[Ellipsis]

Very much less festive.

I keep look at the Christmas tree and thinking "Really?"

Must admit I feel more Christmassy this year than I have for many a year, completely due to our current family circumstances.
We’ve put up all the lights, even got some new ones delivered today, so we do look very sparkly.
Haven’t been near the shops, everything has been done on line and delivered to the recipients house, click and collect has taken care of the food shopping (a BIG gold star to Sainsburys, whoever picks my shopping has obviously been well trained), dog has been to the groomers and smells a lot better than he did, so generally feeling pretty positive..at the moment.

1st Xmas without seeing my mum. Only ever had one Xmas without spending some some time with her (because I was in nick) but even then managed a phone call. This year, no mum to phone!
BUT this year got a Grandaughter instead:-)
Not the same, just different.

Festive decs in town abysmal,
Everyone fed up,
But hey!, We are all above ground :-)
Still love crimbo.

I got my cranberries today, cleared every punnet off the greengrocer's display, and a net of 10 large oranges. So that is tomorrow's task sorted.

Other than that, not very Christmassy at all.

A festive message.

i am looking forward to spending time with the family, going on the 23rd December to brothers and can't wait. I feel better than i did a year ago, as i was in a bad state last year if some remember, so this year i promised myself would be much better.

I must feel less festive because when the Christmas ads used to start in Oct or Nov they annoyed the hell outta me - this year I am not even aware of them.
