Christmas is it just me

Except - we will do what we like to do anyway, but maybe class it up one or two notches. Dinner party at home with one - 2 couples of close friends. Probably kick the wine up to the really good stuff from the back of the cellar. An evening of great conversation with people close to us - that is pretty much as far as it goes.

I think we're there, too. We will still get each other something "cool" from time to time, but if it happens near the holidays it's coincidence. Earlier this month I found a beautiful matching dragonfly ring and necklace set (it was pretty slick, a gold coloring technique based upon heat levels, similar to coloring titanium with heat) while we were in the southern Caribbean. I couldn't pass it up, but neither of us really considered it a Christmas or Chanukah present, it just "was".

And we open a bottle of wine most nights anyway

My wife and I haven't done Christmas or b'day gifts in 25+ years with each other but we always did for the kids and still do for them and their kids. We look at it as through out the year we pick up stuff that we want/need so come a holiday we don't need to have something to open. I much prefer to have a nice home cooked sit down meal with the family instead anyway.

My mom and dad gave each other blank checks every Christmas. It was a cute little ritual every year.Of course, they never cashed them. Mind you, my folks were probably the least materialistic people I ever knew.

......we open a bottle of wine most nights anyway

Me too, Dan. Well, 3 out of 7.

But that is the daily drinker / decent table wine class.

In the back of the cellar is a completely different class of star cruiser. Cannot afford to drink it every day. Wish that I could..............

Does anyone else recieve presents the do not want

No, because I only accept one Christmas present and it is always what I ask for.
