Megan of Pennypincher’s Pantry tagged me for this Christmas Meme.  Thanks, Megan!


Christmas Meme Rules:

1)  Provide a link to the person that tagged you and post the rules on your blog.


2) Share Christmas facts about yourself.

3) Tag 7 random people at the end of your post, and include links to their blogs.

4) Let each person know that they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.

 

1.  Wrapping or gift bags?  Either or.  They’re both nice.  There are some very nice wrapping papers and creative gift bags out there.

2.  Real or artificial tree?  Artificial.  That’s the only type I’ve every had. 

3.  When do you put up the tree? Normally Christmas Eve.  Don’t have time do it earlier.  This year my sister put it up and did it a week earlier.

4.  When do you take the tree down?  A few months later.  Seriously. 

5.  Do you like eggnog?  Umm… Not really.

6.  Favorite gift received as a child? I can’t really recall.  I just know I’ve liked all my gifts.

7.  Do you have a nativity scene? This year no.  But we’ve had it before.

8.  Worst Christmas gift you ever received?  I don’t think I’ve received a "worst" gift.  Once,  one of my brother’s friends wrapped up a dead mouse and put it under the tree for him.  My brother did NOT find it funny when he unwrapped his gift.  LOL!  I’m glad no one has ever decided to give me a gift like that — prank or no.

9.  Mail or email Christmas cards?  I’ve done both but I prefer to mail cards.  Although I didn’t get a chance to mail cards last year (or the year before or the year before) and I don’t think I’ll have a chance to send them out this year.  *sigh*  Maybe New Year’s cards?

10.  Favorite Christmas movie? It’s a Wonderful Life; Scrooge (All versions); Christmas Story are a few that come to mind.

11.  When do you start shopping for Christmas? Whenever.  I hate to shop, though.  I’m shopping-challenged.

12.  Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? Anything.

13.  Clear lights or colored?  Either or.  Depends on how I’m feeling at the time.

14.  Favorite Christmas song?  All

15.  Travel at Christmas or stay at home?  STAY HOME! 

16.  Can you name all of Santas reindeer? No.  Oh –  Rudolph.  Yeah.  That’s right, Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer.   ;-)

17.  Angel or star on the top of your tree?   Either or.  Like the lights in #13 and Angel or Star in #17, it depends on what/how I’m feeling at the time.  This year, since my sister decorated the tree, she put a white dove on the top.  So our tree top always differs.

18.  Open your presents Christmas Eve or Christmas morning?   Christmas morning. 

19.  Most annoying thing about this time of year? Those who forget about the true spirit and meaning of Christmas.

20.  What do you leave for Santa?  Nothing.  I should leave something for him now, since I’ve started to cook and bake, huh?  Maybe I will this year.

21.  Least favorite holiday song?  None that I can think of.  I like them all.

22.  Specific theme or color? Hate to sound really boring here but… Uhh… I don’t usually have a theme or color.  One year, I decorated the tree in all white — white lights, ornaments, etc…

23.  Favorite ornament?  Dont’ have one, really. 

 

Okay.  So, I’m tagging:

1.  Anyone

2.  Reading

3.  Who

4.  Would

5.  Like

6.  To

7.  Participate

Go for it!  And let me know if you do, so that I can go read it.  ;-)

Paz

    I know from busy and commiserate with you about no time for decorating, etc. I’ve been both busy and down with a cold. That I even have a Christmas tree is a miracle! :grin:

    I love the Snoopy decorating his house. I love Snoopy. I am with you about the people who forget what this is all about. Have a peaceful, joyful time for the Holidays.
