I just can't get in to it anymore. I don't have the money plus I have three cats who would have the decorations torn down in no time. Don't get me wrong, in my heart I know the true meaning of Christmas but can't deal with the commercialization of the holiday. I get the bah humbugs and can't wait til it's over. If I had kids it would probably be different. My husband and I have so many bills that I would feel guilty spending our hard earned money on gifts when we have all these other expenses to take care of. I send cards out for my husband's sake but I don't even really enjoy doing that. I never go to company Christmas parties and I stay away from the malls from the day after Thanksgiving until a few days after New Years. I hate the crowds and the cards I send are made on my computer. I mean, we have a family dinner (me, my husband, mom, sister and her kids) but that's it. We spend that time together which is a good thing but like I said, no gifts for anyone and no decorating.
