Whatever floats your boat. But yes, let us get off this topic. There's just a week and two days until Christmas!

We do all our stuff on Christmas Day... our grandparents come down from Denver and we have a big Christmas breakfast and do presents and stockings, then we all hang out all day and have another big dinner and then go drive around looking at lights. We have a Christmas Eve dinner too, but it isn't as big. that night it's more jsut like... anticipation.

Christmas morning/day used to be my mom and I's big thing, 'cause my dad and gram always liked me at their place for Christmas Eve. Since my Dad lives a ways away, though, I usually go to see him and we just do the Christmas Eve thing. I like celebrating on Christmas morning better.

I usually end up going to my grandparents house, and all the family is there (this is on x-mas eve). I hate it.

So, I like the 25th better.

Humbug I am dreading it so badly. My kids will get more toys and toys they dont need. They got a room full already and toys everywhere for me to trip over. I dont have time or energy to have a yard sale. I am throwing away their old toys they dont play with.

I cheer up when it is over.

Well, I would expect that from an adult, considering that he doesn't give you presents
I like both things

Would that counter be going backwards then? Or perhaps start over from 365?

2000 and 2004 were skipped I believe. But I do know 2005 is not a leap year.

In the Gregorian calendar, the one most of us use, the following rules decides which years are leap years:
- Every year divisible by 4 is a leap year.
- But every year divisible by 100 is NOT a leap year.
- Unless the year is also divisible by 400, then it is still a leap year.

2000, 2004 and 2008 are all leap years.

Anyway, countdown to Christmas is over. Well, we could start counting for the next Christmas.

Everybody! Only 364 days left!!!
