Holidays - November 2007

okay, it's known that i HATE my christmas tree. can't have a real one and can't stand the fake one. i mean, REALLY can't stand the fake one. i thought about cutting a giant tree shape out of wood, staining it real nice and covering it with little nails. lean that against the wall and still be able to put all my decorations on it. anybody ever heard of that? or have any suggestions?? come on now, you guys are the best!

My new mother in law doesn't really care for me, although she sometimes try to pretend she does. We only see each other maybe twice a year so I really don't know her very well. However, I still want to get her a gift for Christmas since this is my first Christmas in the family. But I am at a complete loss.

I grew up in a house where Christmas was a big deal... now I sit at 46 with a son in the mental hospital, a wife who has betrayed me and abused drugs, alcohol and herself for years and is just a fat and depressed loser now. She wants to have the whole Xmas thing this year. I don't. I am just now getting over thanksgiving when I had nothing to be thankful for whatsoever... now i am supposed to pretend i give a damn about Christmas. Lets worry about the rest of the year, why don't we? Then we'll talk about Christmas. Oh, religious people, I have nothing against you. Its not the holiday I am against... just the secular celebration.

Every year we put out a painted Santa and a homemade HoHoHo sign next to it. This year our new neighbor came over and told me that our HoHoHo sign was offensive to women and that I should take it down. I certainly don't want to offend people, but I've never even thought of that Christmas decoration as being taken that way. What do you think?

I'm burned out to the whole idea even. Yes I feel the neighborhood pressure to conform. The holiday coctails still sound good though.

So, it looks as if we'll have to make gifts this year, due to financial constraints. I would love to hear your suggestions on what we can give, considering the following limitations:

* We're not very crafty, so we might have to limit ourselves to food gifts.
* We have a diabetic in the family, so high-sugar items aren't a great idea.
* Most of the recipients on our list don't drink, so booze doesn't really work.
* The recipients on our list live in the desert, and bread doesn't keep for longer than a day or two.

Thanks all!

Christmas shopping warning--they do! At a party I was given a lot of various gift cards, including a $50 American Express card. I decided to tuck it into my wallet for a rainy day. Well it "rained" and guess what. The card had expired. It was only good for 13 months. It's been 15. It had no value. After being informed it expired, I looked closer at the card and it does list an expiration date.

I'll bet the purchaser was not aware it would expired. He paid $50 for it. Since when does money expire? I never thought to look.
Just wanted to warn others.

who do you feel is more at fault?:

1) The teacher for not knowing better.

2) The kids for not knowing better.

3) The kids' parents for not teaching them better about their own religion.


THIS IS NOT INTENDED TO OFFEND ANYONE, I'D JUST LIKE TO KNOW WHAT YOU THINK. If 1-3 above doesn't satisfy you then please give a different reason.

I'm stuck and looking for ideas. We've been together almost a year and are very close. This is our first Christmas together and I really want to do something memorable. Money is not really a factor, but I think something memorable that really expresses how much she means to me is more important than going with the WOW factor of giving something really expensive. I think she would be more impressed with that too. So I leave it up to you people of yahoo....what would you do?

I am a resident assistant trying to find a fun activity for my residents to do in December that would involve the spirit of giving. I am looking for a craft or activity that would end with something we would be able to give to a group home, nursing home, ect.
My residents are mostly sophomore/ jr males and females.

Thank you

I am stumped on what to get the person I drew this year. It is a cousin that I haven't seen in 5 years or so. (large family with lots of folks traveling and this year the whole group is coming in that means lots of new people to shop for. Anyways he is in his 30's (I think). Far as I can tell he perfers the simple stuff in life (no mp3 or stuff like that). THE RULES CLEARLY STATE NO GIFT CARDS. The limit is 25-30 dollars. This is what his card says----hunts with bow and arrow, outdoor person, loves country music, large in shirts, favorite animal is horses (i think he has a small horse ranch or a farm with like 30 horses)

Any gift ideas?
