The best part of christmas has been being with my family, laughing and having a good time. Once my sisters and I left home, we never saw much of each other over the course of the year, so we get along much better on the few occasions we do see each other.
thus, the buy buy buy spend spend spend mentality is frustrating.
*unrelated note* Know how everybody's always complaining that "Oh, it's Satan's Work, taking the Christ outta Christmas! It's shameful! just Shameful!" Jesus was actually born in the spring sometime. right around the time of year when the sheep are giving birth. That's the only time the Shepherds stayed out in the fields with them at night. *now back to your relevant topic*
commercialism is especially frustrating because I haven't much money to spend. but I'm not one who needs stuff. stuff = clutter. I hates clutter.
