Christmas - December 2006

The only thing I hate about Christmas is having to find a carpark in the Shopping Centres, having to wait in line for absolutely AGES to purchase a present and working in retail at ridiculously long hours. What do you people hate about Christmas?

I have a teardrop shaped ornament that was made by my now deceased father back in the the late 1940's while he worked in the neon tube bending business. It is made of very thin glass, is quite delicate and is traditionally hung on the tree each year by yours truly. After Christmas is over, it'll be wrapped in bubblewrap to protect until next year. There used to be a half dozen of these in the family in three different colors ( red, yellow and blue ), but the rest have either been lost or broken. I have the only remaining ornament and it is one of the red ones. I consider it to be an heirloom and it is obviously a real treasure. Wish I could show you a picture!

Ok, as some know, I am a Druid, and that I celebrate the holiday of Yule instead of Christmas. I have a couple of family members who have been asking what I want for Christmas. How should I answer them without offending them?

My boyfriend wants a "care package" for an x-mas gift. If you had to put a care package together what would it include? I'm thinking like razors, socks...

I'm 29 years old, married with a 2 month old kid. I have everything that I need and really don't want anything for Christmas. Unfortunately, people insist on buying me gifts and ask me what I want.

So.....what do I want for Christmas?

He is a combination of cool / academic and very intelligent, although still likes to fool around like any other kid.

I don't want to give him clothes, money or a gift voucher, I would rather he had something to unwrap but I'm not really clued in as to what is popular for boys these days.

In the past he has had books, fishing gear, kite, lego, model making kits, remote control car, etc -

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated - thanks

I am Pagan, but I still like Christmas carols. They're remnants of my childhood. My favorite is "O Holy Night," simply because the tune is beautiful.

What's your favorite, and why?

It was almost Christmas time, there I stood in another line
Tryin' to buy that last gift or two, not really in the Christmas mood
Standing right in front of me was a little boy waiting anxiously
Pacing 'round like little boys do
And in his hands he held a pair of shoes

His clothes were worn and old, he was dirty from head to toe
And when it came his time to pay
I couldn't believe what I heard him say

Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

He counted pennies for what seemed like years
Then the cashier said, "Son, there's not enough here"
He searched his pockets frantically
Then he turned and he looked at me
He said Mama made Christmas good at our house
Though most years she just did without
Tell me Sir, what am I going to do,
Somehow I've got to buy her these Christmas shoes

So I laid the money down, I just had to help him out
I'll never forget the look on his face when he said
Mama's gonna look so great

Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

Bridge:
I knew I'd caught a glimpse of heaven's love
As he thanked me and ran out
I knew that God had sent that little boy
To remind me just what Christmas is all about

Repeat Chorus

I have received a fur lined sink, and electric cheese straightener, a toenail engraver kit and an electric toilet seat warmer. Of course, I have received some dumb gifts as well. What gift have you received under the tree that made you shake your head?

Is it all about the stress, shopping, and presents, or do you find time to also make it a time of celebration and thanks?
