Christmas isn't about the biggest and most expensive gifts, it's about giving - and sharing love. Your mom put a lot of thought and care into your presents and I love that. How often do you hear people complaining about shopping for someone and ending up just getting anything that could work - I've been that person, but I don't like being like that. You have a cool and great mom!<BR/><BR/>I also don't have decorations up this year - like several fellow commentors. While I missed the decorations, I don't miss the mess of putting things away either. New Years is just a few days away - the holidays aren't quite over yet Bone. Then, there'll be Epiphany, Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Chinese New Year, Anniversary of the Constitution, Lincoln's birthday, Valentine's Day, President's Day, Washington's birthday and Flag Day to celebrate - and that's just in January and February of '06! There's lot of holidays to look forward to! :-)Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00150067289957912243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6006953.post-1135748420539157772005-12-27T23:40:00.000-06:002005-12-27T23:40:00.000-06:00wrthis year it soooooo didn't feel like it was Chr...wrthis year it soooooo didn't feel like it was Christmas to me. Dh felt it too. We kept saying it can't be Christmas in x many days...and then it was Christmas Eve.<BR/><BR/>And now it's all over and I'm wondering where it went. I think that I missed it somewhere. I'm already getting the feeling that I should start putting stuff away, but I don't want to. I just feel weird.<BR/><BR/>I usually leave the decorations up until Jan 6th and I probably will inside. But with our weather her in CO I think that we'll take the outside lights down tomorrow before the cold front creaps in.

It is kind of a let down once all the festivities are over and the packages have all be given and/or opened. When my family and I are all together opening gifts, I let everyone else open their gifts so I can savor the anticipation of still having mine to open! You got some really great gifts! Thankfully, I didn't decorate so I don't have that staring me in the face. I do wish all the food that is in my house would go away. I like the idea of 8 days of gifts!

The week till New Years no one really works or gets anything done. New Years day is even sadder for me because that means the whole holiday season is over. When I take down the Xmas lights I put up Valentines decorations the same day so it's not as depressing. <BR/><BR/>Also onboard with Patty, Sunday nights are dismal too.Joshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14526768359403038489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6006953.post-1135702712249860432005-12-27T10:58:00.000-06:002005-12-27T10:58:00.000-06:00Good to know I'm not the only one who feels the bi...Good to know I'm not the only one who feels the big let down after Christmas.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6006953.post-1135698562595580762005-12-27T09:49:00.000-06:002005-12-27T09:49:00.000-06:00Yeah, the day after is always kind of a let-down. ...Yeah, the day after is always kind of a let-down.

I always thought Sunday evening was a sad part of the week-end. It meant Monday was coming, kids going back to school, husband going back to work. I usually enjoyed them all being at home.<BR/><BR/>Have a great Happy New Year.<BR/>PattyPattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16106461789118388241noreply@blogger.com
