spiritless

It seems every year it gets harder to get any christmas spirit, and this year is no better, maybe worse. When I was a kid, we would have huge gatherings, ten or fifteen at my parents for christmas day, thirty or forty or more at my grandparents the next sunday. There was lots of food, presents, family, and fun.
It's hard to feel anything when you don't have anyone to share it with. The truth is, it's just another day off work for me now, I've pretty much given up on it being anything else ever again.
Hopefully, when ski season kicks in for good, then we have the powwow in Hamilton next month, I'll get to feeling better. It's just not a good season for me.
