Christms is one of the important holiday in the year. So I need to do many things to prepare for this special holiday. I decorate my house, buy Christmas cards, cook Christmas food like turkey. Especially, I give many meaningful Christmas gifts for my love, my friends, and my family. I often buy Christmas gifts at Hobby Lobby beacause this store offers many coupon codes on Christmas items. So I can buy everything I like without breaking the bank.

This year may be nice and quiet, not too certain yet. Christmas Eve will be at a friend/relative home... :home:

We've been going to my sister's the last couple years and usually play games. I, too, would love to sit in front of a fire just relaxing. And I've tried to watch Christmas shows/movies, but it aggravates my brother-in-law. He's one of those people that as soon as the day hits, it's over and he's all for moving on.

Not exactly what I had planned this year, but I made it another home for lunch and some opening of presents. The just relaxing back at my home... :giftpeek:

Mine is slightly different from what most of you posted, but pretty much the same. I don't have any family in the area, so I invite friends who also don't have any family in the area to spend the day at my place. The television usually stays off, but we've been known to pop in a Christmas movie or watch a sporting event. I have munchies and drinks throughout the day, then a huge Christmas dinner. I also have this weird preoccupation with setting my Christmas dinner table(s) differently each year (one year Santa themed, one year woodsy themed, one year modern etc) This has been a tradition for several years, and a lot of people prefer spending the day here, because they don't have to deal with family drama.

That is very cool JollyElfDC. Back in my military days, I did the same, when duty permitted. Having a 24/7 type of job, I did not always have the luxury of Christmas Day off. When I did, I woud either invite a few of the single people over or if I knew of someone having a rough time being away from the family, I would go in and take hie/her shift and let them go home.

Not much of a comment for this particular strand...
