Christmas At My House…
1. Tree is fake/real? Fake. Both ... well, all.
2. Tree is under/above 4′? One is 6.5 feet, one is about 2 feet. The others are in between those sizes.
3. Open presents Christmas Eve/Day? Sorry...both. We open one (or two) on the Eve, because that's how Beast's family did it. Then we open the rest, including Santa's--in the morning.
4. House/entire yard is decorated? HELL no! I get the tree up and some stuff scattered around inside the house, and a wreath on the door. That's it.
5. Amount of presents under the tree? Right now, none. Usually, too many.
6. Snowman is a male/female? On those rare occasions I make one, it's a snowman. Self-explanatory, no?
7. Go for Santa/Jesus? BOTH. Do people know that "Santa" means "holy" or "sainted"??
8. Homemade/delivered/takeout Christmas dinner? Christmas Eve, Chinese (Beast's family thing again). Day, we usually don't do ANYthing and just snack on leftovers and so forth.
9. Bedtime is before/after midnight? Church is at 10:30, so we are usually just getting out of coats and stuff at midnight.
10. Wake-up is before/after 7am? The rule has ALWAYS been after 7. Al.Ways.
11. Go/don’t go to church on Christmas? I don't think we'll go this year. We will go on the Eve. Normally there's no service on the Day--we're Presbyterian, not Catholic.
12. Do shopping before/after Thanksgiving? Whenever I see stuff, but mostly after Thanksgiving.
13. Low-key/over the top decorations (inside and out)? Low-key and/or non-existent. Didn't we cover this in #4?
