I HATE HOLIDAYS *RANT*

I AM PANICKING ALREADY AT THE HUMILIATION THAT HOLIDAYS BRING. BEING SO WEIRD BECAUSE I HAVE NO FRIENDS TO SPEND THEM WITH. PARENTS LIVE VERY FAR AND ITS TOO EXPENSIVE MOST TIMES. BEING HOME ALONE AND TIME MOVING SO SLOWLY AS I SEE AND HEAR OTHERS CHATTING AND SHOPPING FOR FAMILY, COOKING ELABORATE MEALS. IF I COULD SLEEP FROM THANKSGIVING UNTIL JAN 2 I WOULD

Well, if I had the money and the room, I'd invite all my friends here to celebrate!

I hate Christmas. I am miserable when Christmas comes. I hate the whole idea of it. My father ruined the holiday for me as a child and I have hated it ever since.

I've got the friends and family part...but I'm miserable for the whole season. Perhaps some people are genuine, but I feel like it's all an act.

I will be spending the holidays alone this year. So I'm going to make a nice dinner and burnn xmmas incense and have some wine.
And then I'm going to go to the local bar and hang out with the guys.

I can't remember the last holiday season that was positive.

I'm with you on the whole holiday thing. Last year I spent all of December and half of January in the hospital, because I was so depressed. I've been in bed now for a week and a half and lost 15 pounds so far. Getting past the holidays is the hardest thing for me. Hang in there, and know someone is hangin' with you.

I can relate except my Birthday is in January so I just want to hybernate from now until February.

I do enjoy buying the most expensive TV dinner for Thanksgiving day. I also buy a whole pie and whip cream and eat it until it is gone. Cherry or pecan is my favorite.
I deserve something special once in a while.

I've got a love/hate thing with the holidays. Like the food, hate that hectic buying frenzy that starts before Halloween.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
