I work retail and to us the day after Thanksgiving is just about the most busiest workday of the year.

It seems to me that if this is the case and people know full well that the malls, stores etc. are going to be packed with people and they'll be waiting in long lines to pay and not to mention the parking. . . . it goes on-and-on. WHY OH WHY don't they stay home and just relax on their day off? (IF they have the day off) Who really wants to bother with the hustle and bustle of Christmas shopping at it's worse?

Are YOU one of these people who "fight the crowds" to shop on the day after Thanksgiving?

This year my family will be moving the week of thanksgiving and I want to do something special to make it less stressful. And, I want to hear about other people's traditions, too.

Is the time before Christmas more enjoyable than Christmas itself? I think the feeling of the season, seeing the stores dressed in Christmas attire and the general feel of giving, is better than the day itself because the day just signals the end.

Years ago, my old dad used to sing along to a song called (I think) what a mouth. It began:
What a mouth
What a mouth
What a North & South
Blimey what a mouth he's got

Well, it's his birthday soon and as I'm in a group, I wanted to sing it to him for his surprise birthday. Does anyone have the words please?

Is there something special you do with your family every year that makes the holidays special?

Im having my family and my husbands family over for thanksgiving. there will be about 30 people total. I know its crazy, but thats a separate issue. My prob is, do you think it is tackier to have paper plates (I will get the heavy duty ones) or a bunch of mix-matched plates. I have 4 or 5 sets of dishes but they are all serving for four, six or eight. They dont even come close to matching each other. Also, how much turkey will I need?

Every Christmas, my in-laws do a "secret-santa" gift exchange. This year I pulled my sister-in-law's name. The gift exchange has a theme - Something for the garden. My sister-in-law lives in Texas and is very well off financially, so she pretty much has just about everything she could need. What could I possibly get her (for the garden) for a Christmas present?

It would help if it's something that would ship well through the mail since I don't live in Texas.

do you buy alittle through out the year so it doesn't seem like you're spending so much money or just a bunch at once?

Ever year, I seem to have less and less Christmas spirit. I buy gifts and generally I am a rather giving person, but I can't stand the financial burden it causes each year. I live paycheck to paycheck and it is so difficult and causes so much stress. Also, I am single by choice. I am okay with it, but I can't stand it around the holidays because family members constantly ask, "Where is your bf?" or "Seeing anyone special?" It gets annoying and makes me want to spend even less time with my friends and family. I generally try to avoid my peers because they all tend to be coupled up. I just wish I can skip to Jan 15, 2007.
