re: I can't figure out people who hate Christmas

I don't hate Christmas at all. Most important thing to me is being able to go to Christmas Eve services at my church. But all the other stress associated with the holiday....not a big fan of. If I had it my way....no one in my family would worry about exchanging gifts except for any children in the family. Also, I'm usually working some part of Christmas so I don't get a ton of time off to enjoy it anyways. And, don't know why but it seems like every year there is usually some other stressors going on that time of year that make it more difficult to get in the Christmas spirit. Every year it seems like I find myself saying "I'm gonna celebrate Christmas better next year"....and then stuff happens.
