I love to drive around and pass out job applications to all the beggers and homeless people on the streets.
Sorry, but that shit makes me sick. I just have three words----GET A JOB.
My wife sponcers a family at her work (not her idea), I guess the guy doesn't work and has a wife and three kids, anyway, she told me that they have already spent $2,000.00 on this family for Christmas presents.
I work two jobs and my wife works one and there is no way we could afford to spend that much on our family.
Here's the kicker this is the second year in a row sponcering the SAME family, What! he couldn't find a job since last Christmas.
Gotta love the kids tho, we do drop a few bucks every year for TOYS FOR TOTS, But we probably wouldn't have to if there parents would get a job and get off the crack.

Don't beat me up over this, it's just my opinion

Yeah your right about the twist-ties.
I'll be making sure I have the ER on speed dial for when I lacerate my fingers while prying apart molded plastic sealing thick enough for bullet proof vests, placed by evil Asian manufacturers on everything from patch cords to kitchen shears.

HOLY SHIT!
Didn't we just have Christmas, like, a year ago?? Damn, time flies when you're (not) having fun!
Well... so far I've managed to deforest about 188 acres with all the drafts of my masters paper. Does that count? (it's in, by the way... i WILL graduate... in one week)
Ya know, deforesting is important to the environment... I did a public service. Just think how many forest fires will be alleviated by my kind act! Gosh, I sure hope Santa rewards me for this.....

Rocky Horror Picture show is very popular here too, people go and watch it in full drag costume, sing along and do the Timewarp!
Perhaps this is all saying something about British men??

Tommorow I will be coordinating a Christmas Party for 87 disadvantaged children. Grabbed up almost $2500.00 in commercial donations. Picking up 100 pizzas in the morning. Bought gifts for all of them. Hey Santa....BITE ME!
Sunday I get to be Santa at Petco. Last weekend we raised $6000.00 for a local animal shelter. A chihuha pissed on me. Little rodent.
Tonight I dropped a fiver in Sally's red pot outside the local market.
So what are you doing this year?

In truth, I'll be with some family where we manage to say sober enough to enjoy the great unraveling. I get to make some Swedish cookies and tell horror stories about Lutefisk and other ghastly Swedish delights.
Eggnog with Wild Turkey to round out the evening.
I feel guiltier than ever after reading this thread.

Thanks you Ceribus, I needed a reason to Laugh........ 
For us, on Yule my kids get to open one gift. As we are Wiccan, this is the true Holiday that we celebrate. The Gift is usually something that symbolizes what we wish for them in the coming year. Like my 6 year old is getting a set of book that she wants, her first Chapter books.
My mother in law is coming in at some point but we dont know when. I wont get off work until 5pm Christmas eve, then I get the kids and drive home and will get there about 6-6:30pm, then cook dinner and once the kids are asleep we will finish wrapping presents, stuff stocking and get to sleep at some point. Then we get a relaxing day at home. Got a Smoked Turkey  Then I get to go back to work Friday. 
That about sums it up.
Tia

damn.....yep, I am surely feelin guilty now......
I fergot to post any of the things I have done to help others less fortunate......take all of my gifts away......I am unworthy... 
Next year, I promise to keep a list, and, at the appropriate time, I will roll it out, in all it's glory, for those who give a rip to see.
Meanwhile, I think I'll keep wrapping and baking and mailing and singing, getting ready for Christmas,
Cheers!

Christmas eve is my Mom's birthday, so I go to the cemetery and sing "happy birthday" to her (she's been dead for 10 years, but my brother and I started doing this the year she died). Now he's gone, but I still keep it up. It actually brightens up the day and makes it seem like she's still with me.
Then we have a big dinner which I've spent a lot of time cooking and open presents (if I've been a good girl I might even get presents).
Christmas day we spend with Bill's family and it's mass chaos. I can't keep up with all the grandkids and great grandkids anymore. About the time I figure out who they are somone changes clothes and throws me off again.
Then we come home and take a long winter's nap.
Merry Christmas and Happy Haunaka (mispelled as usual) everyone..
Hugs BD

Our Christmas starts this Friday evening at hubby's grandparents house because his grandpa will be having hip replacement surgery on Dec. 23rd, and we did not want to bother them during his recovery. Then on Christmas Eve we go to midnight mass at 8pm, then to hubby's dad's for opening gifts and eats, then home to get some sleep until my stepdad and grandma arrive in the morning for gift opening with us and the kids and some of my cheese strata. THEN off to hubby's other grandmother's house to kiss grandma on the cheek, eat her food that she always pushes on us, then to be ignored by the other side of the family.
Ahhhh Christmas.... that's all I gotta say, cause I am tired and still have a shitload more stuff to bake, make, wrap and clean. BUT, I just thank God for everything I have and keep a cheerful smile on my fat face!
Merry Christmas everyone!

P.S. I am so happy that I took the time to send some money this year to the Humane Society and Salvation Army, and give gifts to Toys for Tots. BTW, this time of year, reminds me of when I lived by myself with my very young daughter, and there was a homeless man down the block holding a sign for a ride and for work. I took him some pb&j sandwiches, cans of soda, chips, hot coffee and $5, sat and talked with him for a good 30 minutes. The feeling I got when I went back to my 1 bedroom appt. made me realize just who God is, and why God wants us to love each other. I will never forget that.

It doesn't surprise me at all what you did for those kids Don.
I think the only time I've cryed while reading a post here was when we were all in NY at the convention and you posted WHY you couldn't be there.
I'm going to be spending Christmas by myself watching, "it's a wonderful Life" and wondering is it?
