← Go back

Do you celebrate any holidays in the period from late-October to early-January?Yes
What is your FAVORITE part of the holiday season, and why?Seeing all of my family: Siblings, nieces & nephews, great nieces & nephews, as well as my own kids and grandkids. We low key celebrate several family birthdays in December along with Christmas the weekend before Christmas weekend.
What is your LEAST FAVORITE part of the holiday season, and why?I no longer Christmas shop and usually don't do a lot of elaborate cooking or baking, so the worst part for me is worrying about whether I should attend or not when the weather/roads are bad.
How ready is your home for any decorating, gift-wrapping, and/or holiday entertaining that you have planned?Other
Please elaborate, if you wish.I don't think I'll be hosting any holiday celebrations in my home this year, but if I was, it would take me a day or two to prepare my home and a week to plan and execute the food! I may have some of the grandkids over to make cookies with me.
Describe the feeling, emotional state, or “vibe” you’d like for your home to convey to your family and guests during holiday gatherings, meals, and celebrations.I prefer a peaceful, restful, holy feeling in my home. I do very minimal decorating and indulge in candles many evenings. If I have guests, I want a feeling of restful welcoming and enjoyment of being together.
What gift would you most like to receive this year?The news that my apartment remodeling is going forward and will be completed by summer? Within reason: an electric blanket or an outing with my daughter to shop for clothes and have dinner together.
