Both sides for me, one girl just under 3 and one just 11 months. Tia is just starting to really appreciate xmas so that's awesome to see and share. I can't wait to see that magic face when she sees what santa has left her. Although my wallet is feeling somewhat lighter.

I hate Xmas,

It was tainted from the age of 16 when i realised santa wasnt real......
oh and working in retail for the next 10 years.

I just cant get enthused until the 24th.

went xmas shopping today. total nightmare.
i drove over an hour to buy the same stuff i could have bought in the local town.
parking was a nightmare
people everywhere
groups of kids signing and begging for money
bloody anoying musics blaring in your ear all day. heard the bloody x factor winners song 5 times back to back.

expensive time of the year. i hate that part.


my uncle told me a good one about a present his wifes family gave to her brother years ago.
he was really into space stuff and wanted something spacy for x mas.
they were poor so coulnt afford such luguaries. their father got a wooden box and wired up a red tight buld inside adn put a bit of a red brick in above it . the light came out under the brick adn made it glow . he told the son that it was a space rock and had to be kept cool every time you opened the box or it would explode. the light was too bright to see what was going on inside clearly and the son bought it.
