Little secret.... Ok, so I have seven children (that's not the secret ;) ). Anyway, usually about Christmas Eve afternoon, I am SO ready for Christmas to be done, and now, Christmas Day afternoon, I am utterly REJOICING that it is over. :rolleyes: I am so exhausted! And I kinda feel guilty about that.... So now my holiday starts, and that is recuperating from Christmas. I enjoy New Years Day a LOT more. Things are getting back to normal and it's nice and calm....:thumbup: Anyone else? |
Can't wait to get the tree down and the house back to normal:D |
Ive already took all the ornaments and decorations down! Im just waiting for my husband to box the tree. I love christmas but my house is to small and full of people I need the space and relaxation. One year Im going to go on a destination christmas where I get a vacation too! |
My little tree will stay up, all I have here for christmas is my 4 furkids..:D :D I remember the busier time, although we had only one child. so in retirement, I do not mind christmas at all or the few decorations we now put out. But I am sure there is no lonelyness happening. lol Merry Christmas... pooh's mum |
I love christmas and dread putting my decorations up. I am sorry its so stressful to you |
I love every second of xmas & the holidays, Today everything went back to the storage room, the house is clean & back to normal.:D |
My mother said that most of her decorations were already packed away! :eek: She was really on top of it today! I love the whole Christmas season....but I hate the stress and hussle/bussle that comes w/ it! |
I'm love my family very, very much. But not when we are all together. I don't know why. I love spending time with them individually, but when you get us all together in one room, at least one person ends up crying with their feelings hurt. This morning I went out to my sister's house and it was just mom, her, me, her two daughters (14 an 16), and her fiance and it was much more plesant than last night. All the gift giving had been done, so it was more about spending time together, which is what I prefer. |
I love Christmas too. I have 11 year old and 1 year old granddaughters so Christmas is a really fun time. BUT, I too, am exhausted. I have ran around, shopped, cooked, wrapped, and entertained for days now, and I am really really tired. I had a great time, but am glad it's over and am ready to get back to a normal routine now. After shopping tomorrow though :D |
OMG! You should have been at MY house yesterday. Along with my 6 furbabies there were a total of 35 people here! ALL AT ONCE! I cooked and cooked and washed dishes and MORE dishes and MORE dishes! By the time I got to bed last night I was exhausted! and my feet hurt SO bad. I was up at 3am soaking in the tub! My babies decided they would rather hide upstairs, which was great after more than one episode of kids opening the fence gate and leaving it wide open even though we told them over and over not to open it. Along with the kids going upstairs and out on the deck to walk across my tile roof to retrieve a toy helicopter umpteen times.... AND a broken gazing globe in the porch area of my house from a thrown toy gun (If it had missed the globe, it would have gone thru my office window) AND looking for an hour for a "lost" baby before finding her in the garage and no one would admit to going into the garage. Sheesh! I love Christmas too, but I agree with tanksmom.... I want a vacation! |
Of course it was also a great time.. I was glad to have my son here for Christmas and will be heading to Phoenix in a day or two to see my daughter. But still, a vacation would be wonderful. a cruise! Yeah! that would be the ticket! lol |
Well, I LOVE Christmas but I'am ready to have things back to normal!!! I am trying to get all the decorations put away today but it is going very SLOW!! My problem is that I like things very orderly and everything has to have a place....well, we got so many new things for Christmas that I cannot find a place for everything!! Everything we got has cords, usb cords, chargers, etc...my kithchen counter is covered with all sorts of cameras, phones, ipods, digital video camera, wirelss head phones, NintindoDS, etc....all this stuff if driving me crazy!!!! I like my counters clean....no junk laying around. I have to figure something out....all this mess is driving me crazy. So I guess I have a love/hate relationship with Christmas....I love Christmas but I hate all the work during and after Christmas!!! Gotta get back to work!!! |
you are one busy person, but you seem to oull it off well. Hope you had a great time. |
