Well, it is almost Christmas again.   I have always decorated for Christmas even when I lived alone.  I have never stayed home on Christmas.  I’ve always visited my family on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day.   I find myself ready for the season to be over.   I am seriously considering not putting out one single Christmas decoration this year.  It is a painful reminder of being financially strapped and not being happy about it at all.   It really hurts me not to be able to buy gifts for all the people I want to.
