Christmas Traditons would be having dinner together opening gifts and laughing..

Christmas for me is about the birth of Christ and bringing loved ones together...

My Favorite songs would be Mary did You Know. Jingle Bells, Silent Night, Holly Jolly Christmas

Love Christmas Movies too!!!

Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas too All !!heart

We didn't do many traditions this year, unfortunately. If it was up to me, I would have done more, since looking at something nice lifts my spirit, even if I don't like where I live. I'm hoping next year will be better....

My favorite thing about Christmas is the hope that it gives me. I'm a religious person, so being reminded of Jesus' birth and God's love for me helps my mood and helps combat depression. I'd feel better if I had more people to celebrate it with, but at least I have God. :)

I'm afraid that after working retail this month has made me very tired of most of the songs. I still like some, but they are less popular.

As for disabilities, I've felt a little queasy this week and I"m not entirely sure why. My anxiety threatens to resurface, but I'm combatting it. My foot used to hurt a lot at my job, but i think it's strengthening. As for my autism...well, I don't know if that's given me any problems lately. :/

Hi!

Just felt like venting a little this Sunday. Though Christmas has been amazing, my health has been a rollercoaster. My illness has thankfully stayed almost entirely quiet which is a blessing, but instead, my monster of a cold has been bugging me. I've had it nince November and yesterday I went to the doctor's to see if it was anything other than a common cold - turnes out the pain I've been feeling is because I've cracked a rib from coughing so much. And not only does that bring me constant pain but I woke up today with the worst periodcramps I've had for a while. So, those things plus my cold in general plus having to study for three exams has done very little to brighten my mood!

Okay, rant over. I hope all of you have had (and are having) an amazing end-of-year, whatever you are (or aren't) celebrating. :) Also I am superthankful for my illness for not flaring up in the middle of all of this, and always thankful for having found this forum om 7cups. <3
As for my favourite thing about Christmas.... the snow! :D

Happy New Year! :)

@CaringBrit the doctor said it was just an unusually stubborn cold, so fortunately nothing serious! :)

Oh no, I'm sorry to hear that you too are having a hard time getting rid of a cold!! It really is the worst when you think you're almost healthy and then bam it comes right back! I hope thbe new year brings good health (and no more colds) to both of us!
