For Those Who Celebrate Christmas
What’s your favorite thing about the holidays? The prevailing feeling of goodwill.
Do you send out Christmas cards and if so how many do you send? I
sent about 25 cards this year, purchased from The Shops at
Colonial Williamsburg. I know tourism is down this year, and I wanted to
do something to support the historic sights, like the Peyton Randolph House.
Be honest: holiday newsletters. Love ‘em or hate ‘em? Eh. They're fine. I have no passionate feelings one way or the other.
Be honest: photo cards. Love ‘em or hate ‘em? Love 'em.
How soon do you start shopping? I shop all year around.
Real or fake tree? Fake
When do you put up your tree? Not putting it up this year. I'm still recovering from covid and I just don't have it in me to decorate right now.
When do you take down your tree? N/A
Describe your typical tree (size, decorations, type) About 4' high
What do you top your tree with? I have a kitty angel
Do you put Christmas lights outside your house? No
Is there a wreath hanging on your door? No. This year I hung a little Rudolph ornament on my door.
Do you hang up stockings? No.
Your favorite Christmas Movie(s) Elf, It's a Wonderful Life, many versions of A Christmas Carol
Be honest: A Christmas movie you hate White Christmas. I don't know why, but it annoys me.
Favorite Christmas Song(s) Andy! 50 weeks/year, I give him no thought whatsover. But at Christmastime, I must have Andy.
Be honest: If I hear this/these Christmas songs again I will throw up Bing Crosby/White Christmas. I have no issue with Bing, but there's an interlude in the middle that sounds like chirping birds and Dear Lord, it gets on my nerves.
Give or Receive? I enjoy them both!
Eggnog or Mulled Cider? Cider
Ham or Turkey? I enjoy them both!
