I wanted to post what it is I like about Christmas and its simple..This is my first official Christmas as a civilian and back in my hometown, I had
been gone for so long. I already have my tree up and basically I like the cold weather, The great old christmas crooners like Mathis, Ives, Crosby. I
love the decorations most. I cant wait to drive around a look at the decorated homes and just enjoy the spirit, I am on extended vacation from work
now so I will doing alot of enjoying the holidays, I dont plan on spending outrageous amounts of money on gifts or battling shoppers at the stores,
Just being by myself enjoying the lights and the season, and Im finally not surrounded my sand and war!!
I like Christmas..What do you like about it, page 1

Gotta love the Holiday season, huh..?
For me, it's all about self medicating in order to cope with relatives that make the Griswalds look sedate...
I also like the genuine expression on my nephews and nieces face when they open the presents I got them - 'cause my presents are second to none...
Basically, I like the strange mix of good times as well as the moments of tension...never a dull moment in Chappy's world.

WONDERFUL
absolutly wonderful
i am miss christmas
i really love it.
when i was i little girl my father used to trim the tree with real candles
which where lit on christmas eve
that was absolutly beautiful.
the sparkeling of light, the glitter, the tree
the music and the little bell which he used to ring to tell us christ child has brought the presents
when i grew older i just wanted to create the same magic
it is magic at christmas all around than my parents used to do
even i am not christian religious i own a nativity set
it is old, first owner was my great grand father over 100 years ago,, i am very proud of that!
the first christmas my ex-hubby and i had i got real candles as well.
but since we are owned by cats just standard electric chain of lights
but all over the tree.
and all over the house.
the smell of cookies in the house
the little secrets you have got
and the glance in the eyes of my son.
and sometimes when trimming the tree the cats sitting in it
and for sure the christmas carols
i love german carols and english carols
my favorite: "Süsser die Glocken nie klingen" - "Bells sound never a sweeter way"
when i used to go to church when i was a student at school, the last carol traditionally
Oh Du fröhliche - Oh thou joyful days
my all time favorite
AND:
Merry Christmas
