Holiday Spirit

Twas the day before Christmas and all thru the apartment...

There's no Christmas tree here. There are no presents to wrap. No cards were mailed. No cookies were baked. If you look around apt 8?? there's nothing to suggest that there is any holiday right around the corner... much less 24 hrs away. But alas, another Christmas is upon us. Which means, of course, that another birthday is also around the corner. Every year I think I feel less and less in the Christmas spirit.

This year i had hoped that I would be spending tons of money of gifts for Kayla but i just can't ramp myself up to the commercialism that is Christmas. I'd love to give gifts but to see people stressed out and upset because they can't think of what to get is just... tired. I'll be spending time with family this Christmas.

I guess I need to figure out why I'm not big on family either. Perhaps I take it for granted? Not sure but it's something I'd like to get thru sooner rather than later. Either way I'll be glad when this season is over. I'll get another bday under my belt and it'll all be done with.
