So what are the Christmas plans? Trees and gifts and dinners? Restaurants? Movies? Working? Visitors or visiting? Warm places or cold?

Merry, Merry Christmas to all!

Much love,

Chickensoup

A lot of reflection on Christ for me.

Family dinner on the 25th, then everyone goes home and back to work on the 26th. Christmas in Europe is so wonderfully unhurried and lasts until Epiphany, Jan. 6. We miss that.

Going to be home. My Dad is coming over for Christmas from across the state. In the after noon, I’m doing a turkey dinner with all the trimmings.

Very blessed this Christmas.

Mt wife was born on December 24th. The family knows her birthday is a major event. We celebrate my wife’s birthday and the birth of Christ that evening and the following day even though we know He wasn’t born on December 25th.

Sitting in my rocking chair, facing the front door with my shotgun on my lap, which is what I tell everyone on the Internet who asks this question.

I'm going to post that I'm travelling to Austin, but I'm actually going to stay here, laying in wait for the criminals that read internet forums to show up to rob me blind.

I'll be going on vacation from my address at 1234 Elm Street, Ft. Collins, Colorado from December 21 to January 1.

I'll be leaving hundreds of dollars in presents under the tree until I get back.

I hope that nobody finds my spare key which I keep under the welcome mat on the front porch, as all of my neighbors will be out of town too, and nobody will be watching my house.

My wife is away taking care of her mother who was not expected to last until Christmas but now it looks like she will, which will be a gift to us all. I won’t open any presents or do any celebrating until she returns in late January.

We always stay home for Christmas. We used to drive down to PA to my parents for Christmas but I stopped doing it because I didn’t want my son’s memories of Christmas being a six hour drive every year. I don’t like driving on holidays anymore.

Going down to Maryland to be with the kid and her family. Really looking forward to it, the baby is 14 months, so he should really enjoy everything!

Let’s see. We already saw “Santa’s Slay,” so maybe we’ll get some work done and watch an old kung fu flick in Mandarin or something.

Mom’s house for Christmas. I am 53 and have been blessed to have spent every Christmas of my life at mom’s house with family.

I don’t take that for granted, especially when she spent last Christmas in the hospital.

Divorce with kids makes Christmas a challenge, but we have managed every year and I assume we will do so again this year.

Christmas Eve looks to be a lonely affair, but Christmas — with my kids and the rest of the family — will more than make up for it.

Will have Christmas and day after off. School closed. I might leave work early on Christmas Eve and probably be off on Friday. After 6 mo of 67 hr work weeks...a little down time will be just fine. Christmas Day will be time spent reading my Bible, reading in general, possibly put in a favorite movie, some yummy food and strong spirits. My tag days it all. Merry Christmas to all. :-)

Stay home, watch movies, eat, really not a thing except wait for the nonsense to be over.
