Scrooge

It's been a few years since I've gotten in the holiday mood and I've definately been a Scrooge these last few years. Last year I gave up the Christmas tree and lit a menorah instead (I'm not sure why). This year I did neither. Although, unlike the last few years, I actually managed to get my parents gifts. I should have spent the money on my husband, but it's okay. We had our now traditional Christmas day spaghetti and then I went in to work. I wish that we could travel home for Christmas, but there's just too many issues with flying this time of year. My husband misses the big meals and the relatives and I want him to be happy. Maybe we'll make it next year.
As for being Scrooge, I think it'll take me having a child to get over that so I have a few more years to be grouchy.
