A Unique Christmas for the ages
Hope everyone had a great christmas/holidays. This christmas was very unique for me as my extended family didn’t want to chance coming over for tree/breakfast as our subdivision was really bad and living on somewhat of a hill doesn’t help when you have a foot and a bit of snow, you know it’s bad when some SUV’s were belling out/getting stuck. Sure the main roads were bare but it’s always the side streets that are the worst.
I really enjoyed how small and relaxing the day was. We are having our family/friends gathering (err lunch) on Saturday as we didn’t chance doing anything last night for dinner. Being snowed in was nice. ![]()
Now that the christmas hub-bub is over for another year, I can rejoice. I grew up listening to christmas music from December 1st to December 25th but now when I hear it I just want to scream. Working in retail setting all these years, I hear the same songs over and over again. Why can’t they just spend the extra money and make a tape (or whatever) of christmas music that will loop every 16 or so hours instead of 4 hours. Plus there is only so many times you can listen to the same song being played by a different artist.

Hi, the name is Kimm, I'm a 30 year old Canadian who has been online since 1999. For the last 16 years my main passion has been dragon boating where I've eaten, slept and breathed it and raced all over North America. 










I really am not a fan of Christmas music in more recent years, as well. Maybe we just overdid it when we were growing up or something. Who knows. I’m glad you had a nice Christmas even though you didn’t get to see a lot of your family.
I think Canada is getting all the snow we were supposed to get. Normally by now we have tons and tons, but we actually have no snow! I’m glad you had a nice Christmas though
Ughhh, I can’t stand the snow that we’re getting in BC
I have over 2 feet of snow in my front yard right now. I hope it does rain like the forecast is claiming it will…
And I hear you on the Christmas music. I can’t stand any of that music anymore. I swear the radio keeps playing the same 10 songs over and over again, just with a different singer.
Hi Kimm! You’re a paddle boarder.. so cool!
Glad to hear your Christmas was relaxing… Merry Christmas. There certainly was a lot of snow and it definitely messed up so many people’s plans. But there is a calmness and peacefulness about staying in!
I stayed in all day today and really enjoyed it.
Oh gosh I know what you mean about christmas music. I worked as a retail manager about 4 years back and I have only just begun appreciating carols again.
My Christmas has been hectic since we’re in Cali… although fun. I can’t wait until I have my own family then I’d totally celebrate Christmas since my family doesn’t really.
