[QUOTE="Suz, post: 319397, member: 29"] Witz, if you are able to clearly define what you DO want to do at Christmas, that might be one way to approach this. For example, you don't mind the food but you hate the gifts. So invite people over for brunch or dinner or dessert or wine and cheese and be specific that no gifts are allowed. Hopefully they will believe you about the gifts. If they don't believe you this year, cheerfully hand them the gifts back and they'll believe you next year. ;) You could do this Christmas Eve or the day after Christmas....or on the 28th to really break tradition. Considering how strongly you feel about Christmas, you have a husband you love so I'd try my hardest to find a romantic getaway for a day or two. It would probably be the most pain-free independence move of all. Good lucki! Suz [/QUOTE]
