    So do you like it. Do you luuuuvvvvvee it. Is it just a money racket. Are you happy when it's over.

    I bloody hate it. People living in a lala land when it comes around.

    I love it. Great to see the kids faces when Santa arrives and to catch up with friends and family that I don't see much during the year.

    I am dreading the expense of it all though. Still trying to figure out how to make December's budget work!

    Don't mind it. It's not the same as when you were a child so now it's just another holiday with food and jollyness.

    I was just in Tesco and they have stuff out for the Christmas next year, which is over 13 months away ffs.

    It's getting farcical now.

    Usually love Christmas but not excited at all about it this year. Life's been shít for the past few months. Right now I have very little money, am living in the middle of nowhere, my friends are all far away, am single (as per usual) and I'm already fat enough as it is so not even looking forward to all the food. And my birthday (which I don't like very much anymore) is a two weeks beforehand. So I'm very much 'meh' about the whole thing right now.

    Christmas has been coming since at least September, and for that reason I think its being coming for too long.

    Really looking forward to it. Mammy dinners handed to me two days in a row and two weeks holidays from work. Bring it on!

    I despise it with every fibre of my being until I see my kids faces on Xmas morning and then I love it for 2 hours before going back to despising it again.
