All presents wrapped, and it's off to the in-laws for the holiday dinner.
Somehow, I have the feeling they skipped a tree this year though, and that thought makes me a little sad. It's like no one puts in the effort anymore. It's become just another consumerist holiday everyone feels obliged to participate in.
I love buying gifts, finding just the right items, and it thrills me when people appreciate the time and sentiment. I hate seeing and hearing from others what a chore it is, and how they hate having to worry about it. It shouldn't be a worry. It shouldn't be an obligation. It should be from the heart, because you care and you want to and you saw something that made you think of them...
