[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 491138, member: 1514"] I have always had a very hard time with Xmas itself. Im pretty sure this had to do with the fact that I am an only child and most years it was only my parents and me celebrating alone. Some years we did go to my dad's family up north and I loved it then. But that all stopped when I was 15. After I was grown it has always just been my small family. We included my mom with us on the actual day itself and then saw my dad normally the week before or after. Still...I normally was always putting on a good game face for the present opening and then I went and hid in my room the rest of the day. Tony has always done the cooking for the holiday meals...both Xmas and thanksgiving. I hide. Most likely this year we will be at Cory's and I will put on my brave face and try to act like I am thrilled. Its what I do. I know I should be happy. I have good kids, a home I own, cars I own, food, etc. I am. I just dont do well this time of year. [/QUOTE]
