I am having the hardest time getting prepared for christmas. My fiance has problems all the time with his ex wife and from a recent fall out christmas, that we have with our children every year, has been canceled with his kids because they can't see us. I can't explain to my six year old that the kids mom Is psycho and we won't be having our traditional christmas and still smile so she don't get upset. Not the mention the way people are acting In the streets. I'm scared to turn the news on people are stealing toys from churches and killing people right and left.
Help....I want to have a merry christmas but so much drama Is going on!!

Last year was the worst Christmas I've ever had. My husband was in Kuwait. I spent Christmas eve in a horrible Ramada in Seattle. I spent Christmas day traveling across country to get to my brother's house. I got into a huge fight with my brother, mother AND father. My dad left my mom shortly after the holidays. My father has yet to talk to me since last Christmas. My world literally fell apart last Christmas. I could very well let all of that affect me this year but I refuse to. My husband is home. We are expecting our third baby. We moved to a beautiful new home. I'm very grateful for what I have. Yes, there are terrible things going on in the world but there are good things too. I try to focus on the good...and we don't watch a lot of tv.
Set aside the negative and focus on the positive. That is what this time of year is all about.

Don't worry, I think a lot of people are having a hard time getting into the Christmas spirit this year. I know that I am. I've been trying to do a lot of Christmasy things like making a gingerbread house and doing a lot more decorating than normal. I'm hoping that later this week it will all kick in.

Sounds bad. I dread christmas because my father killed himself 2 days after christmas one year. Since then I have learned that Christmas it not a happy time for all people. I will be glad when it is over.

Some crazy azz woman tried to steal my bags from me outside of Macy's on saturday. Luckily the security guards saw the whole thing. She was sort of prim and proper looking and I'm all tattooed and pierced so I'm sure I would have lost that arguement had they not seen it. People are CRAZY!!! I'm so sick of Christmas and all the crap that goes along with it. I'm just ready for it to be over and next year I'm not celebrating.

I am not excited about Christmas.
I have no family but my husband and I just miss my family,at this time a year, when everyone get a chance to be with family and friends
and it is not just this year , it is like this for 5 years ... each year I miss them so much and there is no way i can be with them or they can be with me.
so far from each other.
But I am still happy that I can talk to them.

I am sorry to hear your story...
Frankly, I no longer celebrate Christmas, just treat it as another holiday.
Christmas is becoming a season for the big store like wal-mart ... making you spending and spending....
It is not fun anymore once comes to finance problem....

christmas isn't about food, gifts or party. it's the true spirit of christmas that's most valuable. the true spirit's to believe, to cherish, to live on with hope & with love. celebrate this christmas whole-heartedly with ur family. family is something worth treasured. just believe tml is a better day.

Just have fun and focus on your family. I just moved from Texas to California and it will be my first Christmas without my family but I'm just focusing on my daughter and making it a fun time for her!!
