Getting to spend time with the family
My birthday
Mr. aephi alum's birthday
Friends flying in from out of town for New Year's
Yummy holiday food
Giving and getting presents
Decorating, and seeing everyone else's decorations

Having to work Dec. 22-24 and 29-31 while Mr. aephi alum has that time off
Having to spend time with my mother-in-law
Temptation to go off my diet
After the holidays, taking down the decorations
