[NSC] How is your ‘Christmassy’ feeling?

[The Wizard]

Anyone else feeling so very un-Christmassy this year, I’m normally a really Christmassy person but something just doesn’t feel right that I can’t put my finger on, and I see many people on social media feeling the same?

Well?

I'll tell you at Easter when we are supposed to be celebrating Christmas.

No end in sight of covid and flu like cold have left me distinctly meh

A global pandemic a a tier 4 lockdown might have something to do with it...

Merry Christmas

I think I'll opt out of future yule tide celebrations. Spent last year in Morocco, very strange sun bathing on christmas day, but something I wish to repeat.
It just hasn't been the same since we blocked the chimney and got central heating.....do you realise how long it takes to roast a chestnut on a radiator?

 

[LamieRobertson]

Same as u Wizz...I will be with my grandchildren tomorrow though and seeing them enjoy opening/playing presents will change my mood no doubt.

I would add though that unusually I am sitting here with all presents wrapped....normally I leave it until the early hours of Xmas day....it’s quite a nice feeling having it all done

 

[Stat Brother]

As Christmassy as I always feel.

 

[OzMike]

Not religious so not a Chrismas fan, though all the kids and their partners will be here so that will be nice.

 

[Hendrax]

Normally hate it. First sober christmas in 10 years and I'm giddy with excitement.

I wonder what it could be?!?

In all seriousness, I don't feel anywhere near as Christmassy as usual either, as millions and millions will be feeling the world over for obvious reasons.

For me this Christmas is about relaxing as much as possible, remembering that the world has been in much worse states (world wars for a start), counting blessings for what I have, and looking forward to the beginnings of normality again in the not too distant future - hopefully.

Same as every other Xmas. Cooked the turkey, gammon and yule log today. Been down the pub, dished out my pickled onion presents, had dinner. Just finished wrapping presents. Sit and watch TV for an hour. Bed. What's not to like?

Now I am.

Have always loved the Christmas period, the feeling has never faded.

Having finished all my work and domestic jobs, watching Polar Express with the family, the beginning of 12 days of indulgence.

Prefer it without the pressure of gatherings at family and in laws.

 

[Bombadier Botty]

Everything is so messed up we ended having ours today with our bubble for logistical ease, full roast, Christmas pud, Christmas cake, pulling crackers, presents opened and the excellent card game Timeline. Tomorrow is now classified as any other day for us. Marvellous.

 

[spongy]

I wasn't feeling christmas'y at all. But we managed to get a table at the pub with close friends at short notice so enjoyed a 3 hr and 7 pint afternoon.

Got home at 7, got the 18 month old to bed, had a dance and fun in the living room with the 6 year old before bed at 9, loved putting out the mince pies, milk etc, and thats when my mood really turned into christmas mode.

Gave it an hour before we set up the presents ready for the 5am morning wake up. Everything is set.

Bring it on and I cant bloody wait to see their faces now!

Merry Christmas everyone!!!!!!

 

[The Clamp]

Just another night at work. I'm not Santa.

 

[Justice]

Watching a film and some fella is drinking his own piss, happy Christmas

 

[Eeyore]

Happy Christmas everyone. Look forward to seeing you in 2022.

 

[Juan Albion]

It's Christmas Eve, it just started to snow. What could be better?

 

[METALMICKY]

Not religious so not a Chrismas fan, though all the kids and their partners will be here so that will be nice.

Since when has not being religious got in the way of enjoying Xmas?
