Just can't get in the Christmas mood

Apart from the odd purchase of cards, and making chutney etc, Christmas does not enter my horizon until December really.

Same here, Christmas is a the tail end of December, I don't give it a second thought until the beginning of December at the earliest.

All those expensive adverts are completely lost on me!

It is still early November!

It’s a tad early for me! I think and plan around now, I have ordered our Christmas meat, booked supermarket slots and got Christmas cards, but nothing else will be done until Dec 1st!

Depends how many christmas presents people buy.

I know someone who buys about 83 each year.

I love Christmas, I love giving presents and usually by now I have done a lot of present buying but this year I just can't get in the right mood. I haven't bought a thing and can't think of any ideas for anyone. I can't believe Bonfire Night has passed and I'm not organised. 😟

Give mainly money this year?

Has something happened to you recently?

If I were in the Christmas mood now, I would find it hard to maintain the momentum for another 6 weeks. We have 2 family birthdays in November, plus the anniversary of losing Paw - oh and I’m having a couple of days in Paris visiting D, SIL and GS, so once those are behind me I’ll turn my thoughts to Christmas.
