i've i hate christmas for good. i thought it was a passing thing but no it's permanent. every year it seems to get worse. i try to find money to pay bills with and have some left over to get gifts with and no way it ever works out. i worked overtime and had holiday pay and had a decent check and what do you know but unexpected bills came and i'm broke. i hate the pressure to buy stuff that i cannot afford and everything is so damn expensive. doesn't anyone like cheap shit anymore??? cheap isn't too bad. i know what people think "start earlier", "buy a little at a time". maybe thats the answer, hell i don't know anymore. this year people at work are buying me things. they know christmas isn't a good time for me for personal reasons and they are bound and determined to make it nice for me this year. so far they are doing well, BUT i feel i should be getting all them something. i feel so messed up. i feel very awkward taking gifts from people. i should just hole up somewhere when the stupid season starts and not come out until it's over. now that sounds like a good idea. i know in my heart that the real christmas isn't about gifts or money but people put such pressure and high hopes on the other side that it's difficult not to get caught up in it. i hate feeling this way. but i do hate this holiday. |

I love christmas...but I would like it even more if the whole gift thing wasnt a factor.Some of my friends are throwing a party and talking about a gift exchange, and all I can do is smile and nodd because I have no idea how the heck I am going to give them anything back. The whole is "better to give than to receive.." would work great if I had money to give them something with. I know material things are not suppose to be the best things to give....but I would hate to only give people hugs this christmas...
