my tip is to not buy too much in to it.

the thing with these holidays is that people feel they are under pressure to get the gifts right for others, to get the food right, to get enough decorationss etc etc etc.

you don't have to do that at all

in fact- why not just do what I do.

stick to a rooteen,... watch my muppet's on christmas eve, buy myself a few gifts and eat a turkey

that's all you really need to do.
christmas always gets so exagerated by so many people
