    I just did a little work, my wife is setting the table for dinner and then we will drink and watch movies together.

    I’ve been looking forward to it all week.

    For me personally, I’m gonna stay up for Christmas Eve and watch NORAD Tracks Santa.

    Always is a great pass time to watch Santa’s journey across the world, and is also a great tool to know his location and to know when he will arrive in your location/area. It’s one of the best things of the Christmas season for sure!

    Today i helped the hostel owner make a Christmas tree. It was fun. He did most of the work but I sat back and supervised, regaling him of tales of all the times I’ve been really drunk in Christmas eve.

    Were going out to a bar later to try and emulate the experience.

    I’ve taken my partner and kids interstate to see family we haven’t seen in 2 1/2 years, whilst bushfires are burning not far from our home.

    We’re due to fly back on Boxing Day, and not sure what we’re going back to yet.

    I’m putting on a brave face for our kiddos, especially our 4 year old who is really into Christmas this year, but we’re terrified what things look like in a couple days.

    I’m going to spend Christmas Eve (the day that we celebrate Christmas in Sweden) with my family and cousins. I’d guess that’ll be fine, however I don’t know everyone that well so I’m not too excited for it

    I will cook some Cornish game hens, asparagus with garlic, mashed potatoes with garlic, maybe bread rolls. Dessert will be eggnog and chocolate peppermint cookies.

    Already did the family thing on Sunday and survived.

    My partner and I will be celebrating with friends, they are also not Christmas and especially family Christmas fans. We are just going playing jack box, baldur’s gate and probably some board games. So I’m a bit excited for first Christmas day, but we will not do anything traditional Christmasy.

    It’s for me one of the most stressful time’s of the year.

        You didn’t? For once in my life I had a good excuse to stay at home and do nothing! On the rare occasion I did need to go out, the air was clean and the highways were empty.

        I wish every year was like 2020.

        My partner and I were laid off December 2019. In February 2020 my government started giving us both a lot of money every month. We were not working from 2020 until 2022, and made money anyway. We spent all of our time together, at home, going out as little as possible, doing everything we loved (we have all of the same hobbies and are homebodies).

        Best years of our lives.

        Well we got to see the nations lowest forms of life throw a largely ineffective temper tantrum. What’s not to enjoy?
