Bah Humbug! Anyone else not in the Christmas spirit yet?

Original post by JLP

I'm usually a very 'Christmas-y' person, but I'm just not feeling it this year. With 101 days to go until my wedding and a task list that seems daunting at times, I don't have time for Christmas. Christmas happens every year, I'm getting married ONCE.

I am in a good place with regard to my wedding timeline, so why can't I relax a little and enjoy the season? Is anyone else feeling this way?

Maybe I just need a little egg nog with some rum in it...

I go in and out. I wasn't at all into Christmas due to lack of Money, but I bought some stuff and felt a little better...THEN I got depressed over spending money..

STUPID CYCLE!


I LOVE christmas, but I cant wait for it to be over. I hope I can catch the 'spirit' of it soon!

I'm in the spirit, but I'm not thrilled at all about buying presents. Everybody knows that FH and I are going to be very minimal with our presents this year, but I feel really bad about it. I know that our families understand that we can't spend much, but I really wish that we could.

The money thing is killing me!!! I love to buy everyone gifts.... But this year I don't know how I can get the kids little somethings.... Aaargh!!!!! I'm so behind with money and that makes everything else behind... So Christmas spirit is definately in the negative. Of course working retail I here Christmas music all day and have to spread holiday cheer that I don't have.... I think that this is a common illness...

Totally not feeling christmas this year.

Im always the cheesey one that loves to add all the little touches to make the holidays special, and cheer people up and get them into the spirit. Not this year. It my first christmas w/o my grandmother, and dealinig with it hasnt really been all that easy. It was her favorite holiday too- she loved buying us millions of gifts and seeing our expressions as we opened them... no matter how tight money was, there were presents stacked 4 feet high from wall to wall in her house. hearing all this christmas music just makes me think of her and how shes not with us.....


did someone mention Rum? im not an egg nog person, but i could go for some rum right about now

this is JLP's FH----and I can't bear to watch this anti-holiday madness!!!! Christmas is the BEST TIME OF THE YEAR!!!!!

My FI isn't excited, none of you are excited, all of you need some spiked egg-nog & a cigar!

Good luck to all of you in your upcoming weddings... Now, go buy someone you love a present!!!!!

Hi Ladies, this is me again. I just got yelled at for saying I'm sick of Xmas songs, so I showed my FH this thread.

He felt compelled to respond. He is also a man and doesn't have any clue.

LOL
