[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Who else is really looking forward to Christmas?

Posted: 12/17/2016 10:31:43 PM EDT

I got my wife some (what I think are) great gifts, my daughter is about 2.5 and old enough to be excited about it, I get along with my family and in-laws, will be seeing my brother for the first time in something like 5 months, get to hang out with my 90 year old grandpa.

Feel like a little kid I'm so excited.

Jealous! I'm big on Christmas but I drew the short straw this year and will be on duty.

Enjoy the festivities!

I can't wait for my 2 year old daughter to open all her stuff. Today she told grandma "I don't need any presents from Santa because my daddy got me so many.".

I'm barely in a Christmas mood at all. My son is 18 now and living in Georgia when the weather is in the 60's doesn't feel like Christmas.

I get to spend a week with my family, I'm finally at the age where I could give a shit about presents I just want to hang out with those that I love.

It's gonna be awesome!

First Christmas without my father.
It's going to be hard, but I'm trying to get into the spirit.

I'm working 6am-2pm but have the sneaking suspicion that one of my co-workers will call in sick and I'll get stuck

I'm looking forward to it being over with.

I'm single and will be spending Christmas alone (well, a lady friend is coming over).
But my house is decorated inside and out, and I'm looking forward to it - I love this time of year.

I am! I haven't been "home" for Christmas in over 8 years. I've spent the last 8 christmases all over the world, usually alone, and I'm glad to finally be with friends and family for once.

I'm looking forward to seeing the look on my boys' faces when they open those boxes and find a couple of Glocks. They really want one but they're not expecting one for Christmas.

My Christmas came in November this year, and my nephew and niece are in California so not really feeling it.

Every year as soon as my shopping is done I'm excited to see everyone open their gifts. I love getting to watch my wife try on things that she gets and helping the kids put legos together.

Only downside this year is that my MIL will be staying with us this year. She's ok, but sometimes I just want it to be me and my wife and kids.

I am! I got the kids some great gifts, can't wait to see their faces Christmas morning.

I really only care about the time off of work.

I always look forward to my little girl opening her gifts.

But more important for me is the little family we associate with getting together!

I hope to get some cool stuff. But it sucks that Christmas and New Years are on the weekends so I don't get any time off of work.

While I envy those of you with family nearby to spend Christmas with...I'm still planning to enjoy it even though I'm alone.

I plan to celebrate Christ's birthday by preparing a feast, drinking a bunch and being thankful for the grace He has seen fit to bestow upon me.

Merry Christmas!!
