Who besides me is glad to see Christmas over with? Seems the older I get and the more removed we get from the true meaning of Christmas, the happier I am to see it over. Sad, but true.

The true meaning of Christmas is truly overlooked. It all seems to be all about materialistic things for this younger generation.

I'm not. Most of the kids were here for several hours, I got to spoil the grands for a while and then I took a nap this afternoon. There ain't much more a fat, old man could ask for to make a perfect day

Everyone in mine and wife's family still celebrate the real reason for CHRISTmas and like Pappy I have grandkids and love seeing them. They live 3 hrs away.
But I do see your point but it doesn't affect me so it's their loss.

People have been saying this all my life. Celebrate it the right way and don’t worry about what other people do. There’s nothing you can do about it.

We always celebrate the true meaning of Christmas its a very special time for us with family and friends. Christmas time always comes too quickly and is over much too soon for us. How others celebrate or do not celebrate the Christmas season is fine with us.

Just our immediate family made it a small Christmas. We focused
on our family and the reason for Christmas. Turned out to be a very specail Christmas.

I've always loved Christmas and never like to see it go. I don't let how others may choose to celebrate it affect my enjoyment of it.

Nope. Love Christmas. After Christmas I reflect on how we can do it better next year.

Seems like the younger ones are not being taught the real meaning of Christmas.Too much about presents and not enough about Jesus.
I love it, because we cut all the commercial crap out of it. It's about family with us.

My family enjoys Christmas, and we do it our way every year, and just ignore the white noise around us...I refuse to let the chaos of the rest of the world affect our happiness...

I find it kind of interesting when people talk about how Christmas is getting "too commercialized." One of the characters in Miracle on 34th Street complained in the movie about this same thing and it came out in 1947.
