Advantages to online xmas shopping: Done in an hour, easy, get stuff for cheaper than out in town, get stuff you couldn’t get in town.
Disadvantages: The delivery. I’m waiting for around thirty items, but today, if I’m lucky, the postman will deliver one or two of them at best. Also, I went back to bed at 8:15 am, then got an email at 8:26 which I didn’t read, advising me a driver would turn up between 9:25 and 10:25. Seriously!? I woke up at 9:45 to find an annoying card. They didn’t even manage to wake the dog up. They must have tiptoed to my door… *growls*
Right now I officially hate Christmas. And I was doing so well this year.
I can’t help imagining how much worse Scrooge would have become if he’d woken up on Christmas day morning to find cards from the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future saying: “We’re sorry we missed you!”

Growing up, we were given choices. Presents on birthday or Christmas. My poor parents. Four of the five of us have November and December birthdays.

Awww… there were only two of us (my brother and I), but my Mom is one of eleven! How my grandparents used to deal with that, I have no idea. Wow…
I get the impression from hearing her speak of it that it was a bit of a free for all type thing, lol.

Yup, having five of my own, it certainly IS a free for all!
