I would love it if I were with other people who I got along with better, and we could enjoy holidays. I love to entertain and celebrate. I’d make a party and celebrate anything! I’m a merry maker.  |
I used to love the holidays too back when I was a kid. I started to dislike them during my teen years and really began to hate it when I was in college. Yeah family unfortunately tends to ruin it. I agree that celebrating the holidays with people you actually like makes it better. I don't care for New Years either, but I am always at a friend's house for New Years. Nothing crazy, we just hang out. For me, that is way more enjoyable than being around noisy boisterous family members.
