I'm relieved when it, and New Yrs, are over! Then, I can get back to my life and try to get over how grouchy everybody was. LoL

"Too commercial" we cry. *Everyone* says it. Well, then who the heck is doing all this shopping that makes the holiday so commercial?! ;-)

Maybe we need to get a new mirror in our stockings this Crhi--aaahhhh--- Xmas. I just can't type shri--lol I give up.

I know I do my fair share of making it commercial. I don't worry about it, though. Christmas (corect after 5 errors, good grief) isn't as important as Easter. Easter is the more important day, but most don't care much about it. I wonder if most realize that in rank of importance, Easter is way above Xmas. No one worries that they sell Easter trees, baskets, candy, decorations, etc. And that stuff is out really early, too. I wonder why that is? From what I hear, the gifts in the Easter baskets have escalated in value quite a bit since my son was little.
