My mom has been saying this the past week - that it doesn't feel like Christmas at all. Well, as i cannot disagree with her in person, I will privately oppose her here. Haha. Though I do understand where she's coming from - there are hardly any corporate gifts being passed around and gone are the fancy decorations. The hot weather is certainly not helping. Even our fresh Christmas tree has lost its scent!
I think that it feels more like Christmas without all the bells and whistles (i just wanted to use this phrase haha) because then you don't get distracted from the true meaning of the season. I feel that this feels more like Christmas because then you exert more effort to generate that holiday feeling, minus all the material trappings. Yes, this simple lifestyle is bad for business, but it forces everyone to take into account what they actually have. So Merry Merry Christmas dear readers, and I truly hope you share my sentiments on this.
