What are your plans for Xmas this year?

Sk8r Girl

Personally I love Xmas. It's my fave time of year Santa tone1 Christmas tree I love the music, spending time with family; my little sister still gets soo excited Blush and I love watching the Xmas movies. Everything just feels so amazing this time of year for me. 

The downside for me is how busy the shops get, the pushing and shoving of other people, the overbearing loud music. If I could stay in my house all through December I would! Sweat smile Going out this time of year feels like being in the middle of a riot. Last year I got shoved so hard I fell and sprained my wrist. I wish people wouldn't go so OTT in the shops.

This year I'll be having a quiet Xmas with my family. We'll watch Xmas movies on Xmas Eve, my little sister will wake me super early on the 25th as usual lol and I still need to finish my shopping. Buying gifts is my fave part, I really think hard about what people will want and enjoy. It's like a challenge and I love it!

What are your own plans?

  • I think I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with Christmas. I enjoy looking at Christmas decorations and illuminations, and eating food that I tend to associate with Christmas. When my son was a young child, I found his excitement and love for Christmas to be infectious. 

    What I can't be doing with is the hustle and bustle, and the fact that Christmas has become over-commercialised.

    This year, my son and I will be having a quiet Christmas (just the two of us), or at least that's the plan.

    Yes it's very over commercialised. There's been Xmas music and toys and decs in the shops since before Halloween here. Waay too early.

    I hope you and your son enjoy your quiet Xmas. I'm hoping for a quiet one too. This year no extended family coming over, such a relief as the last couple were extremely busy and rushed with so many people coming over at once.
