Evo said:... ate my entire collection of ornaments ...
They were all on the tree, which she knocked over, what didn't break in the fall, she spent the rest of the night finishing off. They were homemade ornaments my mom made, some she had brought with her from France after WWII, I had started collecting special limited edition ornaments since the birth of each of my children, etc... They all had a meaning and memory attached. I was going to pass them on to my girls when they grew up.AnTiFreeze3 said:Is that even possible?!?

Aww, that sounds so nice.wolram said:YES i am spending christmas with Kia her hubby and my dad, we are pooling our cash to have
an dinner to remember.
Lunch and a movie sounds like rather a nice present!turbo said:This year, my wife asked the neighbors' grand-daughters if they would rather have presents or an afternoon with her. They both wanted the afternoon with her. Not a bad choice, since they will both get to go to lunch and a movie, and my wife will make it fun for them.
Evo said:I used to get into all of the decorations, but after the year that my daughter's dog, the JAWS OF DEATH ate my entire collection of ornaments I had been collecting for over 20 years, I just stopped.

I'm a semi-militant Atheist. There are a few people who still insist upon giving me presents, and I therefore feel obliged to reciprocate. It would be simpler if they'd just stop doing that.

An "xmas type person" is someone who enjoys and celebrates the holiday of Christmas with enthusiasm and excitement.
Some common ways people celebrate Christmas include decorating their homes with lights and ornaments, exchanging gifts with loved ones, attending religious services, and preparing special meals.
No, being an "xmas type person" does not necessarily require being religious. Many people who do not practice a specific religion still enjoy the holiday season and participate in Christmas traditions.
Some holidays that have similar traditions as Christmas include Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and Diwali. These holidays also involve gift-giving, special meals, and spending time with loved ones.
As a language model AI, I do not have personal preferences. However, many people enjoy the festive atmosphere, spending time with family and friends, and the overall feeling of joy and generosity that comes with being an "xmas type person".
