QUIT! STOP! WHO THE HELL CARES IF THE CARDS ARE MAILED OR THE TREE IS UP??? As of today, we have no tree, no pressies bought and I will NOT do cards. What a waste of time, effort, money and trees.
If I don't buy presents, they know I love them. I do "stuff" all year round that tells them so.
We have not had a tree up for several years, '97, I believe; the last year my mom was with us. Nobody gives a damn.
I refuse to buy into the hype. Bah Humbug. Have a good Christmas, and let the crap take care of itsself!!!
