Love it!

and....I hate holidays... December.... bahhumbug! It's just an inlaw shit show... no thank you.

Have you worked in retail, perhaps? That'll turn anyone off the holidays forever! And then family drama just makes it worse.

Ha ha....ah man do I never want to work retail around the holidays heh. I would "Nope" right out of there within the first couple hours of the job.

Are you a member with us? Would you like to enroll for savings? Can I interest you in the company credit card? Can I have your email, please? Would you like to make a donation to the local holiday charity?

I think I developed an eye twitch from this comment lol.

Without exaggeration, it's what we were required to say to every customer. Secret shoppers were employed to make sure everything was getting mentioned.

Ever worked at Toys 'R' Us during the holiday season? If you love retail drones, chaos and hordes of angry shoppers...

Maybe you could suggest make a gingerbread house with your in-laws some time...You'd be making memories for sure.

Haha I'd be turned off ginger bread and I just love it too much for that memory association.

Glad to know you don't hate every single holiday related thing! ☺

To @artwatch:
Happy Holidays

I like the quiet beauty and wonder that is Christmas, I will admit I have my secret love affair with the magic that is Christmas at times.....but it tends to be drown out by my hate for consumerism and family meladrama. I think if I had my own children or grandkids I would warm to the holidays more...as it stands it just makes me feel lonely in a see of happy faces.

This time of year I like to think of how soon spring will be coming back around. Remember, not all of those "happy faces" you see are reflecting from a happy person inside. Loneliness can become a source of motivation if channeled correctly, perhaps your greatest work is lying right under the surface as we speak.

Sweet! Both are really cool, but I got to love that tree. For some reason it has such a great appeal. Details on both of the houses are great aswell!

I appreciate your comment! With these I was adding the color as quickly as I could, within reason, and the results held some nice effects. Thanks!
