| How will you be spending Christmas Day? | | So Christmas means something different to everyone, and is celebrated differently in different cultures.
I'd love to know how all you myLotters will be spending your Christmas Day '07!I live in Australia, down in the Summery Southern Hemisphere, and my day will probably consist of:
A large party of friends, family and extended family and various people who get invited along.
There will be a long outdoor table covered with salads, Christmas ham, meatballs, fruit platters, pasta and potato salad, jugs of water, punch and juice and a big fridge full of beer, wine and spirits.

Everyone will sit, laugh and chat around the pool (occasionally choosing to swim or, alternatively, being pushed in - much to no-one's dismay but your own=P)

| | Holiday Headwear | | You see the sales people in the various stores wearing Christmas hats, antlers, and such, but you also see the random few wearing such items around town. My question is are you one of those people and are these the same people who are the life of the holiday parties. I guess to be one of those people you have to have the holiday spirit and are that type of person who wants to instill a piece of that spirit into each of us. Maybe we should all go around getting into the spirit of the holiday and wear our holiday gear, maybe not a santa hat or reindeer antlers, but something to say hey I got it too. With the commercialization of Christmas we tend to overlook the holidays now and what they really are about. It all about family and the coming together to spread joy to others. So to those that do go around town wearing thier antlers with pride I say thanks and Merry Christmas. My your holidays be filled with the Joy we all need to share. | |
