Like it or not, that certain day is fast approaching. Or rather, that "season" as it seems to have turned into. I am not typically a Grinch, but there are always times each year when I am ready to hide in a corner and skip it all. Here is everyone's place to rant on this year's events. (I know there are lots of Scrooges out there!)
I received an email from my mother at 6:57am on 12 Nov (I guess I should be thankful that she at least waited until after Remembrance Day): "when are you having Christmas this year? I need lists from everyone!" I responded back to her that I would be doing a full turkey dinner mid-afternoon on the 24th and we would be doing some of the gift exchange then too (mostly due to the fact that my son and step-daughters will be going to their other parents' places on the afternoon of the 25th) to which she replies back "but I have to work until at least 5pm on the 24th so there is no way I can be there before 6pm."
Pack your bags folks, we are going on a guilt trip! :
