How do you celebrate holidays?
So wow, holidayyssss. My fave!
I have always celebrated them with fervor! Even when I was in my 20s and had a house by myself, I had parties near holidays, decorated with all I had and gave presents to those I loved and to those less fortunate.
It all stems from my mom I am sure. She always put out place mats, home decor, windsocks, garden signs, etc. If there was a holiday, she had decor for it.
Back to the subject at hand, I celebrate holidays, especially Christmas, by going to every event possible! From parades, sing alongs, retro movie showings, church services- I go to all that I can. It reminds me so much of being a kid. Wearing tackyish jewelry (mixed with good), singing and dancing my heart out and gathering with friends and strangers who share the love of the season with me, is kinda special.
In the DC area, there is so much to catch and some events are quite expensive, but many are free. And that includes the DMV (DC, MD, VA). Come and visit us and join in, whether you are Christmasholic like I, or love Halloween or St. Patty’s, we have the holidays covered. ♥️

Hi Dee,
I am not really a holiday person. I don’t look forward to it at all, but I have been trying to enjoy it more as I get older. I am becoming more aware of our limited time on this earth and don’t want to regret or miss anything.
May you have a wonderful holiday season ahead.
Blessings!

I hope you do too! Find little things to revel in to get you in the mood. Hot chocolate with a candy cane that melts into the chocolately goodness. Doing DIY ornaments and giving them to neighbors or friends. Attending a sing-along. Going to an open air market selling cool handmade wares. Hope the upcoming season leaves you with a smile on your face and a spring in your step.
