I stopped running around a long time ago. When you lose key family members it's just another day. I too enjoy staying home, relax, eat my own food. Happy and blessed.
Yep! This year I don't mind Zooming in since decided to stay home instead & make my own damn holiday dinner (grocery shopping completed). I am beyond exhausted from working hard to earn back C----19 losses. We have a back to back 3 day weekend this year (Christmas & New Years on a Monday), I'm going to take advantage. 😁 #mytime #myhome
Growing up we had to get up early and dress up, I did not like doing that. I no longer celebrate Christmas, but I still give gifts throughout the year. I definitely can relate.
I feel like I was required to get through all that nonesense for Thanksgiving. I refused to do it for Christmas. I didnt care what they planned. Christmas day im gone be at home, wit my tree, my dinner, and my fav movies. Im not sharing that day wit nobody. I dont want too
I have a HUGE family, but I’m with my mother, sister, and son now for holidays. We laugh and play games. Just this year, we’re moving away from traditional food. I don’t want to be alone, but I also don’t want to be around a ton of people or have to be “on.”
Right! I can understand that! That's a good balance of having some family around, without being overwhelmed and feeling obligated to be around a bunch of people, especially, when you don't want to leave your house.
I second this! Especially when the people doing the inviting lives 4hrs away. I have absolutely no interest in spending Xmas day driving around for hours on end or sleeping in anyone else's bed (for the ones who suggest that i could sleep over to lessen the burden of a long drive home). I've started telling people that I don't celebrate xmas and get called "Scrooge". But I do need my turkey (the only time of the year I eat it), so I roast a nice turkey leg and freeze it a week beforehand. Then on xmas day, I only need to do the roast potatoes and veg, and not spend all day in the kitchen.
Now, this is a good vented comment!😂🤣😅That sounds very stressful, you travelling so far away from home, to go visit friends and family. No, you are not a scrooge.
Every year wake up 8am, rush to open our gifts, rush to get ready to go to the in-laws, 4hrs later rush to my family til 8pm i want to be like Nezi and stay home! But if they want me running to they house oh i betta have a gift waiting 😂
I don't have family where I live anyway! My son comes to visit he's a vegetarian, and I try and cater to his needs. Ans most folks ain't about that! So I make enough for he and I.
I feel you Chile !! 😂 Not to be a buzz kill but technically Christmas isn't A Biblical Thing anyway... it's a man made Holiday nothing to do with Jesus! Just wanted to throw that in !! Have a Blessed night Nezi 👋🏽👍🏽
Happy holidays to everyone...well I moved far away from my family and friends so my adult kids and their families and my grandkids come visit me for a week so everyone will arrive Friday afternoon I'm cooking for Christmas and we will have Christmas eve breakfast buffet that morning house will be filled with love and coziness we plan a outdoor event for Saturday and so this is always enjoyable because I don't see them all together only for Christmas and summer then I sleep straight through new year because I'm exhausted but it's OK only this time of year😊

Im definitely staying home for Christmas enjoying my own company. I will be relaxing, eating and being thankful for another year.
Sounds great! That's what I want to do. If I feel like I want to get out, I'll go.

In this case my job had a Christmas party during working hours and I didn’t go. Nowadays I don’t trust people or their food.
Yep I feel the exact same way, Im fine with staying home, and I no longer go where I dont want to go‼️
Right! That's the same way I feel! And I don't feel bad about it, either! Tuh!

I understand, completely. Your Christmas sounds like my kind of Christmas.🎄 😊

I feel the same way you do. Good night and sleep tight.
Good night
I definitely understand. Plus, you are saving money not having to buy gifts.
I feel the same way but feel guilty and go anyway.
Same leave me alone lol! 😂 HI Neko lol.
😅🤣😂
Yes family members come to your house pack a plate of food then leave.
I was married for 4 years to a socialite family from the Bay Area. An event like every month. I couldn’t sustain that lifestyle too basic.
I can absolutely relate ❤
