Are you ready? Christmas is exactly one week away. I just dropped my cards in the mail yesterday - I'm just hoping they make it. I haven't bought a single Christmas gift and I'm not quite sure if I actually will. Fergie said if you ain't got no money take your broke broke home. So I'm going home. Does it really make sense to go out and get further in debt when you know that you can't afford all the gifts you're buying. My friends and family know how I feel for them (sometimes love - sometimes hate).
But don't get it twisted, I love this time of year. Our place is very well lit with Christmas lights thanks to my boo, the cards are out on display, and the window is decorated. I've had friends over to toast the holidays and I'm just recently returning from my pilgrimage across country to see the family. The meaning of the season has not been forgotten. I'm just saying, be realistic and do things that are not going to put you in jeapordy. Yes - it's great to show your appreciation to those that are important to you, but showing appreciation does NOT mean that you have go spend your life savings.
For all those that visit The J Spot - Merry Christmas and Happy Kwanzaa.
