I feel behind in my reading. I can’t wait until the summer to go through my shelves and ereaders.

For most holidays and birthdays, I celebrate them with my immediate family. Sometimes extended family and friends are included too. For Mother’s Day, I’m baking a cake and going over to my parents’ house with a friend and my brother for dinner.

For New Year’s I like to stay in. The roads are crazy and prices are outrageous. When I was in my 20′s I used to feel like I had to go out. I would usually be disappointed and wish that I had stayed home and watched a movie. Now that’s what I do. I don’t like crowds and really was not having that much fun when I would try for that “Hollywood New Year’s Eve” that we’re supposed to all have. I do enjoy a small New Year’s Day brunch though. I guess overall, I prefer smaller informal gatherings.

There are so many expectations of what holidays are supposed to be that it takes time to figure out what feels comfortable for each individual and family.

My family does like singing Christmas carols on occasion though. And when I was younger I would go caroling. I miss it and would do it again. : )
