Do y'all see definite upsides and downsides to the holidays?
For instance:
My husband and kids are out of school!
Of course, there's the religious side to the season!
The fun! The food! The music!
On the other hand:
I will, as usual, spend too much at the last minute because it's so hard to try to make sure 13 kids are more or less even
My inlaws will be unable to understand why I don't want to spend Christmas with my buttbrained sister-in-law
It's hard not to gain weight at Christmas!
Anybody else?
