As long as you are happy and enjoying: that's the most important thing. Plus you've got Christmas to go as well.

I was saying this today.
We spend weeks building up excitement and whatnot and its over before you know it.
And your right, Christmas these days isnt soley a time to be with family, it's how much money you've spent sitting under the tree.
Christmas has become too commercial and it's a real shame.
My cousin is a prime example.
She has three young children and she's spent a mind boggling fortune on them. PS3's and iPod's. The oldest is 6
The three kids are the most spoilt little bastards going and the only concept they have of Christmas is presents, not family.
