i always love Christmas no matter what. i loved it this year even if i got a cruel surprise. my husband had to go on a forced leave because of the economic problems that continue to plague the world.
i also had to work on Christmas day because of client commitments but then again, it's good that i had work. at least i could cover for the days when my husband will not have work

It wasn't interesting really. It was practically just another day in this house really. Of the five people that lived here, two exchanged gifts and acknowledged the day the others ignored it. I'm more annoyed with people and behavior than anything. I realize the holidays aren't about gifts and stuff I just feel the people are rather ignorant by trying to ignore things and people and stuff.

Christmas was good but nothing exclusive. We had dinner at friend's house and given gifts to them, shared cakes also. One lady has come at home with a paper mentioned her miseries and asked money. She was well dressed and you can't even guess that she came for begging money. But I gave money to her because I was busy with kids and wanted to send her back immediately. She asked about celebration and it was clear that she is taking advantage of the celebration and she knows that many people willing to give money on the occasion of Christmas. After getting money her next demand was cloths, and she keeps talking about Christmas... and she forced me to told that we are not celebrating Christmas and do not belongs to that particular community, (there was no other choice) after hearing the same she left quickly.

Mine was alright. We celebrated it early and I took down my decorations today. I wish we would have got some snow. It would have been alot better.

Well, I think that it was a great Christmas because the
four of us were together ,and my husband cooked a special
dinner just for us. We also went to church to thank God for
all the blessings that we have ,and even if this Christmas
was not that great in regards to financial matters it was
a Christmas full of love and hope for a better future.

Exclusively interesting, that's different. Not sure what you mean. But we mostly made presents or found less expensive ones. Loved my lap top desk.
How was your Christmas?

Nothing to great. Same as most years. Kids were really excited to see all the gifts. We stayed in our room for a little bit just to listen to what the kids were saying about santa and all the gifts, it was really cute. After they openned their gifts we picked up and then the whole family came over for dinner and chatting. It's nice to have the company, but it's nice when they leave too. :) Hope you all had a merry christmas!

This is one of the best Christmas seasons we've ever celebrated. We had a wonderful reunion with our family and relatives from all over the world. It's a nice feeling that this year, we were all complete. I really appreciate their effort in going here though it's a thousand miles away and the financial expenses they have incurred for this trip.

Things went pretty well. My husband and I went to my Dad's place for Christmas day. The whole family was there, and we had a great time. We got lots of good food, got lots of nice presents, and we got to see all kindds of people that we hadn't seen in a really long time. It was a lot of fun.

Well my Christmas was spend with my family. We had a barbecue party and everyone in the family were present. It was almost perfect. The only thing missing was my sister who is currently out of the country. Well, I would say that it was a great Christmas for all of us. I do hope that yours was also great.
