:D! I'm not talking about ghostly stuff. ^^ Let's share our Christmasy decorations! :3 Photo time! Click on image for large pic with a bit more detail! Everything is floating on clouds! D: The above is from my desk at work. :3 Everything from the dollar store! Thing is, I do believe some of the stuff should have cost LESS than a dollar but whatever. :P

hmm. well i never took down the christmas decorations from last year so i guess all i need to do is plug them in. The one on the timer has been turning itself on and off all year long. i sort of enjoy that one so i left it alone. at work the halloween decorations are still up and will probally be up until i get a new job. sort of makes me happy i dont really celibrate any other hollidays. my stocking is still stuck on the front door knob where it has been for over 7yrs. sad part is after being on the door that long i really dont notice it.

AH! I LOVE CHRISTMAS LA LA LA
Too bad we don't decorate much other than a tree. But there is PLENTY of traditions, like all the kids sleeping in the same room so we can talk ourselves to sleep and be excited together. And coming down at like 4 in the morning and opening our stockings+1 present. We open the rest with the whole family. Damn Christmas. Recently it has smellt like Christmas! I LOVE IT. I LOVE THE HOLIDAYS. Seriously, they are the most wonderful time of the year.

I LOVE THE HOLIDAYS. Seriously, they are the most wonderful time of the year. Except for the snow. My God, I hate driving in snow and I REALLY don't like shovelling it. But hey, this is the positive thread so ... I do like light and fluffy snow though!

It's a bit early for our stuff right now, but we tend to put out some things. Like a nice papercraft Christmas village.

We always set up our stuff on Remembrance day, to keep the day happy. Our troops fought so we could live in the world we have today, so Heather and I make sure to be as happy as can be. We set our stuff up with the quickness, and Ill post pics soon.

I'll have to swipe my camera back off the tripod and snap some pictures of the stuff we have up. My mother's got quite the flair for interior (holiday) decorating.

Well, I did play the role of Santa Claus this year; sans the suit, bodyfat and white facial hair. We also have a white "light christmas tree" set up already. Girlfriend, schmirlfriend. Don't rely on someone else for your happiness. When you've got Ys, you've got everything!

That actually depends on a variety of factors. As long as the lucky gal doesn't break up with you on Christmas, you should have fun. Honestly, I think you should set holidays and stuff aside for your family, and let personal relationships fall under any other (forgettable) day. Otherwise, you'll be like "Oh yeah, December 25th! It's been exactly one year now, since that evil, evil woman did evil, evil things to me." XD Maybe I'm just a tad overdramatic on the subject, maybe even pessimistic, but don't let anyone ruin your holidays. You won't forget it.

It's not like I'm unhappy or anything like that. It just would be a much more fun to spend Christmas with someone, beside just my parents and siblings. Its nice, but over time the girlfriend becomes a part of the family, and your right back where you started. Just drink more, and I think Christmas will be nicer for you.

What you all should do on Christmas is open your presents and go 'yay!', not drown yourself in drinks or wish for girlfriends! Nothing is nicer than receiving opening nice gifts! *the greedy* (though being with friends [and I guess that would include the girlfriend for you guys ] is just as nice.) Anyways, I was going to comment on the wreath in the art post but since there are so many more over here - those are beyond gorgeous Lumi! I've always thought Christmas wreaths are the most gorgeous things ever which must be so difficult to make. Its... kind of amazing to see you guys making them. (That white one is the prettiest! <3) There hasn't been much christmas festivity around here this year. :'D My mom used to make stockings and actually put them up for sale at this shop. But... there are hardly any decorations this time. Probably because there aren't many people/foreigners.

I think I watched like 10 hours of Christmas specials yesterday. I still haven't gotten around to watching Rudolf.

Alrighty-- so, I promised some piccage of the holiday decor around here. Pretty decorations and wreaths! *o* You guys go all out. :O Our office is finally all decked out in Christmas gear. Nothing exciting though. I'll take a photo of it on the weekend when 99% of the staff isn't there. :P
