Things are going to be different..
Told SexyG that I am not putting up a Xmas tree this year.. I’m not planning Xmas lunch and I am not buying any pressies this year apart from one special gift to each of our kids which may or may not be handmade.
Xmas day will be spent differently, for one I told my kids that they need to go spend it with their Dad, He wants them and it will be their sisters first Xmas so they should spend it with her. After many moans, groans and fearful pleas of not being fed on Xmas day I finally got them to understand that they just have no choice.
So how will I spend this day that is customarily a day of family,love and peace? I just don’t know.. The chance of SexyG seeing his girls are slim to none, my brothers and sister are all doing their own thing mostly..So that scraps the family section..but the love part occurs multiple times a day followed swiftly by peace, so that is currently covered thankfully almost on Autopilot whether I Jingle my bells or not.
To be honest, at first I was a bit sad at the turn of events as I enjoy Christmas so very very much and the thought of not having one is a truly sad thought for me, but then I realised that this opens up an opportunity for me to do something different. Something that I ordinarily can’t do..Something unthinkable almost!
What it is yet, I have no clue.. But I am thinking. And I just know that I will come up with something before long!
- Have you got any suggestions?
- Have you done something out of the ordinary for Xmas before?
- So what ARE you planning for Xmas?

Seeing as your family are all busy or split up over Christmas this year, Spend it with friends! Go on – just do it. Break that tradition…you may just be creating a new one.
Gilz´s last blog ..F is for …
I think it is fantastic that you want to celebrate Christmas in a non-traditional way. I think new traditions are made in this way!
Alet´s last blog ..Lots of Nesses today!
I do a disappearing act almost every year, and believe it or not i have a nicer xmas than been around false family and friends,so if you going the non traditional way count me in (yes im inviting myself). Vodka and chocies around the pool,braai or both?
We’re spending Christmas with my family this year, and whilst I would be quite happy staying home with just me and my Glugs and my knucklehead, Christmas is a big deal with my family. And we’re off to Oz the day after, so I want to say goodbye and such.
I love Christmas too, the decorations and the pressies and such… but sometimes I get a little tired of all the organising it takes to get my family together.
I think next year I’m going to opt to spend it with just us 3.
Angel´s last blog ..I’m Still Here!!!
Po – We were thinking of that. But It’s Xmas.. it may be all booked up and we dont want to accidently bump into christmas cheer.. that simply wont do..
Davy – It sounds like a plan.. will speak to SexyG. Will there be a Xmas tree?? I’m keen on Grinching it this year, so I will be conscerned about ruining xmas for others
Gilz – I dont have that many friends, and the ones I do have all have kids and stuff..
Alet – I am all about the new
QG – you are obviously the only friend I have that enjoys Grinching it for xmas.. LOL!! You are TOTALLY included in my plans for xmas
Angel – I hear you.. Christmas is always a big deal in my family, hence why this year is soo difficult. I am completely at a loss really. That is why unxmas is the only way forward for me this year.
