Being with my mom will be the most important to me, though I admit I also enjoy many of the others in my poll.

1. Just staying out of trouble

[underpants]

2. As I say to my mother

Straight cash homies!

3. Christmas is just another day on the calendar for me...

I am 80, disabed, homebound, and live alone. No family, no gifts,nothing different.

[Polly Hennessey]

9. But Chillfactor you are still here. That counts for

something. All of the Christmas cheer is exterior. Glitzy and bright and not much else. If I could I would stop by on Christmas Day and visit. 😊

4. Football Bowl season

5. I love that, too

Would have been a good poll option.

6. When they are finally over is the most important thing

I've found there are more of us then one would think. We're not Scrooges;we just think it has become total BS dedicated to rampant materialism.

7. Being with extended family on Christmas day...and...

Heck, I love gifts! 🎁
I'm also serious 👍 about picking out good gifts for my family, and friends.

I also 💖 love decorating, and seeing others! 🎄🎀🎄
Some of the songs; fun & serious ones, too.

10. I have to say I like the gifts, too

Though I find it’s the idea that counts more than the cost. I like the decorating, bowl games, and music a lot. The religious aspect is also fun to study even though I am more spiritual than religious.

[electric_blue68]

11. For me cost is not the main thing...

it's will it delight the person whether something fun, interesting, pretty, or useful that they can't currently afford.

I'm an ex Catholic. Spiritual now.

[Wounded Bear]

8. No 'avoiding it' option?

[Anon-C]

15. I've put into work as I did thanksgiving and for new year's day as well. The flock, elected, whoever

...have literally...well it's complicated, but I don't see this church acting in anything like Christ these days. So I keep my fire lit in my closet.

[Skittles]

12. just another working day for me

I do like the lights, though

[2naSalit]

13. When it's over. ...nt

[marble falls]

14. Fambly.

[Ohio Joe]

17. Other

The traditional (in my family at least) viewing of Night of the Living Dead.

18. I'm too immature for Christmas.

I like the gifts!
