Anyone Else Hate Christmas?

[Huan72 687]

Christmas in my place total SNAFU as per normal, the ovens gone and the wife's cars gone as well, meaning i'll be stuck at home over Christmas with the boy while she uses my car for work Hopefully getting new outdoor gear for Christmas so was going to take some long walks out but start walking off tarmac and the boy has an allergic reaction, culminating in teenage strops almost as bad as the year that my bank account was frozen the day before pay day, which was the 23rd December . Still, it could be worse, it could be the year that I drove over a 1000 miles in 2 days in an old Suzuki SJ jeep over Christmas when my girlfriend miscarried and I lost my nan, RIP. Anyway, crack on and all that, hopefully getting the oven sorted tomorrow and getting the car looked at as well so can hopefully turn this one around .................................don't mean to sound like a miserable old git but it just comes so easy to me...............Happy bloody Christmas

Loved it as a kid ..and we weren't spoilt present wise ..family , parties drunk parents lol . Then when i was old enough it was great for the drinking and socializing but the xmas magic had gone ... Now got a wife and young kids it's all good again ..can't wait lol

its great when their young s.e.s.k.u. but when they are in their late teens its a bloody nightmare, dont know what to get them, and they dont know what they want.

enjoy them while they are young, and hope ye all have a great christmas

When all the money is spent on stuff that folks don' t really need or want..........does anyone think that January is the longest month of the year whilst waiting on pay day?

Goose, ducks, lamb, pork or beef had them all over the years trying to avoid bloody turkey.

 

I like Christmas, always have although much better these days with the kids being young.
