Christmas Meme
Haha! Another meme stolen. But, this time it is from someone I've never had the privilege of leeching off before. Thanks dynadee !
1. Wrapping paper or gift bags?
I love gift bags with tissue and ribbon spewing out the top, but I'll wrap and decorate when necessary. Some things just don't fit in a bag.
2. Real tree or Artificial?
Real unless someone in my home is allergic. I love the smell. I like them tall with some character like a strange twisting top. I've managed to get greater than 6ft trees in my little hatchback car on more than one occasion.
3. When do you put up the tree?
Whenever i feel like buying one.
4. When do you take the tree down?
After it dies which is normally not to long. I water them with warm water, but I don't seem to have the touch.
5. Do you like eggnog?
Nope.
6. Favorite gift received as a child?
One of those enormous stuffed unicorns that every girl wants at some one. I just got mine later than most, but then I think I enjoyed mine more for it being a bit out of my age range. Here is where I say thanks to parents that always did their best for me.
7. Hardest person to buy for?
My dad. He buys everything he wants or needs before I even know what it might be.
8. Easiest person to buy for?
My husband. He is kind enough to just tell me what he wants when I ask. I return that favor as I can.
9. Do you have a nativity scene?
One. It was a gift from my aunt & uncle. But, I don't put it out.
10. Mail or email Christmas cards?
I like real cards, but I don't mail cards out or anything. I just hand them out at work and such.
11. Worst Christmas gift you ever received? I'm not sure. I think it was a sweater from my husband's family. It wasn't that it was ugly. It was that it was child-sized. Umm... I'm not a 12 year old girl.
12. Favorite Christmas Movie?
I don't have a traditional Xmas movie. I've seen funny ones or moving ones a time or two, but I can't say that I have one I think of to watch.
13. When do you start shopping for Christmas?
I don't have to do much shopping really; so, basically whenever the seasonal sales begin. Mostly after Thanksgiving.
14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present?
Yes. I re-gifted an ornament I received. However, it wasn't because I was cheap. It was because I didn't like it and knew the other person would.
15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas?
Sugar cookies decorated and shaped for the season. There is this little gift shop somewhere in Illinois that bakes the cookies.
16. Lights on the tree?
Oh yeah!. Brighter is better
17. Favorite Christmas song?
I don't really like normal xmas music. Of the few songs I like, I can't remember any names.
18.Travel at Christmas or stay home?
I like to stay at home, but I also enjoy seeing my relatives occasionally. So, I do the visiting thing every few years.
19. Can you name all of Santa's reindeer's?
No. I would need help.
20. Angel on the tree top or a star?
Always a star. There is no angel that can top a clear glass shining star.
21. Open the presents Christmas Eve or morning?
In the morning. I don't do the early present thing unless someone will be out of town.
22. Most annoying thing about this time of the year?
The endless xmas music playing everywhere. It drives me nuts.
23. Favorite ornament theme or color?
I love a rainbow of colored transparent glass bulb ornaments with silver garland and colored lights. It is like a rainbow flashing on my walls.
25. What do you want for Christmas this year?
Just to be able to relax and enjoy talking to my family about nothing ... and maybe a pink pushie bun-bun from Ouran.
