Good morning everybody,
I am super excited to see there are so many people keen to make Christmas fun! @Former-Member thank you for your very thoughtful post. I definitely don't want anyone to feel like they need to "perform to participate" and I'm glad you were able to hear that through my post. I figure there is enough space in Forum Land for those who want to ignore Christmas or talk about the challenges of this time of the year to do so, and for those of us who want to make Christmas fun, to do so as well. Indeed, I imagine many people will do each of those things at different points in time. I definitely don't believe that there is any right or wrong way to navigate this time of the year.
@MoonGal I am so pleased that you have found such a great partner. It sounds like you had many years of being alone before she came along.
@Former-MemberI can relate to what you said about how you couldn't have done the fun Christmas thing in years gone by but now you can. The first few years that I had Christmas alone were super difficult. I am grateful that I am now in a space where I can feel so ok about this time of the year.
Alright...so we've put up the decorations indoors, now it's time to do the outdoors ones. I've enlisted the help of @NikNik @CheerBear @Former-Member and @Former-Member for this task.

By the way, if anyone wants to feature in a video, the only prerequisite is that you need to have a face! I'm also open to including pets if anyone wants to provide a photo.
Hey @Owlunar would you like to feature in a video? If so, I've found a cool picture of you in your owl form that would work well. I also think @Queenie would be a prime candidate for starring in a video.
Merry Christmas everyone!
