I’m starting to like Halloween the most because it’s the one holiday you don’t
have to be with your family to celebrate.

I think I'm starting to like Thanksgiving more than Christmas.

Always being on Thursday, thus 4-day weekend every year is great

I always work on the Friday after thanksgiving, but it's always a pretty good day to be in the office.

Man, you guys are doing Christmas wrong. I don't think it is stressful at all.

Its easy to get stressed when you go to bed at 2am and have to get up at 6 am
kolob32
11/21/17 9:55pm
I have an idea. Don’t go to bed at 2am. Don’t wake up at 6am.

You must not have kids.
kolob32
11/21/17 11:11pm
I’ve never not been with kids at Christmas. The rule is no one wakes up until about 8am.

What other sage advice do you have for us losers?

11/21/17 11:32pm
I dunno. I’ll ask my mom. She’s the one who thought of that.

Christmas is basically over by 8 am. That's when you start taking down the tree

Come on Scrooge, you leave the tree up a few days past Christmas. Enjoy the day
Cougar TD

We put our tree up this past Sunday so we're ahead of the curve
Ulysses14
11/22/17 11:07am
Yeah, that wouldn't fly with me. We always were up by 6, well we are up earlier
Cougar TD

I do that and love it. I must be more of a kid at heart I guess.

Favorite holiday depends on which holiday i have to spend with the in laws.

kolob32

"Christmas is becoming..."? I'm in retail so Christmas has always been hectic and stressful
HighHorse

Actually I do too. I really just love the traditional thanksgiving foods

I hate the expectation of presents on Christmas.

Ugh. I’m with ya man. I like giving gifts but I’m so bad at it. I can never

Keep a running list throughout the year and listen to what items they mention wanting
buffgato
11/22/17 5:06am
Good advice and I try to do this. Being Rich would make gift giving so much
Gerald-DeGroot
11/22/17 5:13am
Heh yeah...

Take the gift-receiving out of Christmas and it becomes a much more fun holiday.

Halloween has actually become the worst holiday. People have gone nuts with it
pink22
11/22/17 8:30am
Yeah I don’t really like it either. And I like being with my family (minus MIL)
