I can curl up and hibernate until I have to work Tuesday and deal with the crazies and their attempts at returning unreturnable items.
Merry Christmas everyone!
P.S.: I like @trr1 's list -- I'll have to research a few of the more obscure ones like Yule and Saternalia. Somehow, I think I must be missing out of some sort of fun, by not realizing what other holidays there are out there to celebrate?!
April 47th?
Is that the same math that makes Hubby 5' 20"?
Not to mention you won't be taking down your Christmas decorations until at least mid-July!
Well you know that won't be me.
Well to put it more into perspective, all I have is a 2.5 foot tall, fiber optic, Christmas tree complete with a red tree scarf and a 68 year old lighted Santa Claus (about 9" tall) that my parents bought me for my first Christmas. It still works and I don't even remember changing the bulb in it, but, it must have been replaced at some point in time.
Our family tradition growing up was to leave everything up until after Ukrainian Christmas. That's the bare minimum for me.
I follow the same schedule now, but I don't put up nearly as many decorations as my parents did years ago. My decorations are just a few wreaths, a couple of figurines for a manger scene, and a Christmas tree. Still, it's always sad to take down everything.
Sure. I've seen the descriptions of some of the tasty meals you prepare -- I'll be over by dinnertime!
My family always left up the Christmas decorations until New Year's Day--then they all came down . . .
