happy holidays to all my unrewardia friends 🎄

Had some nice presents delivered today. Even one from my a relative that I haven't seen for some years. 👍

Happy Holidays hope every one faces the New year debt free

Finished off wrapping about 4 Xmas gifts today. So will hand them out tomorrow. It's nice to give as it is to receive. I like buying thoughtful gifts. I consider I have good taste. 😹

hi cher, tyvm and MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU !!!

Just have to transfer money for the grand kids otherwise ready as we have plenty of food in the fridge.

Everything is done except for cleaning, food preparation and wrapping presents.

All done except salad and veg

Except for fruit and veggies all done Merry Christmas 🤶🏻

Presents done and dusted, parcels posted, only got to make a trifle for the day and that is all.

Presents wrapped, food bought, now waiting for the big day to get the tables done!

Ready except for cleaning house, finishing buying food and wrapping gifts!

A special remembrance to-- SAINT NICK. He made Xmas gifts possible. Truly a legend of a man!

Lol Totally agree!

Michael wishes everyone a happy Christmas and an even better New year and I hope both levels of Government in Australia fall on their own swords as they keep on spending our Tax payers money

With the hike in petrol, electricity, gas, interest rates, water, grocery prices, where is there any money left to celebrate anything. No Christmas this year. It will be left overs and a movie on tv. Maybe next year will be better.

Can someone please tell me what the big deal is about Christmas? It was the birth of a baby that should have been a king but he was rejected. At the time of his birth he had done nothing, knew no-one and had 33 years to prove what kind of person he was. At the time of his death he had proved faithful to his father, he showed us how to attain eternal life and preached love. His birth does not need to be celebrated, in fact we are told the day of your death is far more important because when you die people know the kind of person you were. Most people don't go to church these days, they don't even believe in God preferring to believe in the theory of evolution yet they celebrate the birth of someone they don't believe even lived. So what is being celebrated? Is it the birth of the son of the universal sovereign and his future kingdom where he will rule as king, or is it just about feeling good? If it's only about feeling good you can do that any old day any time you like. In case you haven't guessed, I don't celebrate Christmas.

I prefer to go out dancing somewhere with friends.

I am as ready as I can be, but still a lot of stress to go, travel for me is difficult and have to travel.

I like "Happy" Christmas, to everyone.

Merry Christmas to you. No I am not really ready but looking forward to it. I LOVE Christmas.

Merry Christmas! Ready?! Oh, not me.

Got one gift wrapped. Was having trouble trying to undo the sticky tape as it would not open up. Had to use something to cut into it as my nails are too short.🥳 Merry and bright! 🎄🌄

YES, LOOKING FORWARD TO IT

Merry Christmas

all set for Christmas day including being Santa on the

Just looking around shopping centres and businesses locally I am uncertain if Christmas is actually coming or not. OK, there was a pageant early in November I think because it clashed with a football match or something and I think Christmas was usurped by Black Friday or Black November' sales, but Christmas???

Well I find all I've got for Christmas is a return visit of Covid!

Hopefully not vast amounts of rain between now and the 25th and she'll be right mate.

Yes am soooo ready. Had all my gifts wrapped and ready 2 weeks ago. Have made 4 lots of rum balls of which some have been gifts. Now am all packed ready to go tomorrow to my sons, can't wait.

I finished today...Hooray!

The best Christmas is one with no gifts and just love

Yes. Just hope those we love and are struggling manage to get to the day and share their last Christmas with us.

Ho HO Ho..just keeping it deep and crisp and even.....

As much as I want to be. Jesus is the reason for the season.

Presents bought and wrapped

What ever happened to the "Christ" in Christmas? Every year I get more and more disappointed that the major Christian celebration of the year is becoming more and more "International Greed Day." Yes, exchanging gifts is pretty special if given in the tradition of love and caring, not "I want" or "so and so" bought me something so I have to return the gesture. Am I ready for the celebration? Yes. Celebrating peace, joy and love is always an occasion to be ready for.

I don't celebrate the holiday myself. I know my brothers are running around to find the "perfect gift"! It's actually kind of relaxing not being involved in all the hub bub! 😀

My husband & I are spending Christmas with my daughter & family so there is not much or me to do. My bit of buying things is all completed so nothing to do until the day when the family will all get together.

Yes! Merry Christmas everyone ❤️

Yes all shopping completed and only few sundries to get for Christmas Day

The main thing to remember is that Christ is no longer a baby, in fact he is the only begotten of God, and the means by which we can be saved. I am going to a Bible school this Christmas, and thanking God that he has promised a future kingdom where there will be blessings for all.

Finished shopping, have started wrapping and all food planed and ready to go. Merry Christmas to all🇦🇺

It's always just the 2 of us on Christmas day but have the menu sorted. I have no kids and he has done his ones so we are good to go! Looking forward to a day with a glass in my hand!

Merry Xmas and Happy New Year to all.

Done and dusted. Pressies ordered on line and arrived safetly and appreciated. Purchased a BBQ chook, in freezer, roasted beef and pork, cut up and frozen into portions, all ready to take out and use over Xmas period. No mess or fuss.

Keeping it very quiet this year have most of it done, Merry Christmas to every one

Not really, :( I found out yesterday after my secondment is finished I do not have a job to go back to...my boss shafted me. I will classed as 'unattached' and can be put anywhere at the level I am at now. So yer do not feel Xmas at all :( Don't want to even hav it *sighs*

I rarely even think about it until it is upon us.

HI Jules...have a nice time...

Christmas now is TOO commercialized. On TV ads all you get is BUY THIS or this. Same as newspapers. Full of stuff the stores want to sell. My grandmother when she was alive said “ all I want is matches to light the gas stove to make a cuppa”. I don’t get sucked in by it all and just go about my life as I want

yeah, wish more people would remember the 'Reason for the Season'

It's sad to say a lot of people have forgotten what Christmas is all about, it seems it's about how much money can be spent on gifts and food etc. I have bought a cricket bat and ball, a Badmington set, and a hover ball so we can play games with the kids by having some fun and laughter, we will have a BBQ to, I can't wait. Merry Christmas all, keep safe and enjoy your special day, think of those who can't be with us and those who have passed away. love and Blessings to you all x

I never have to worry my wife gets everything done and I just have to help with the delivery of presents.

Happy Christmas to Everyone! Whether the gifts are wrapped or not I am happy😍🌹❤️!

Nope. Not doing Christmas this year. Can't afford it, family not worth it.

There's not really anything to do. Since I won't be seeing family, I've sent them money to buy the gifts for my Grandchildren and Great Grandchild plus themselves. There's only my son and I this year and I can't get around very well anymore so will be quiet. Wish everyone a Very Merry Christmas and a safe New Year

The same to you Zee and all Rewardians

Best wishes to all……yep ready ….cant wait…lol

I'm so last minute it's seriously not funny ! Pick up the prawns on Saturday.. Wrap a few presents Xmas eve and will actually buy others next week as am not seeing some family until NYE

Yes just waiting on Christmas day

Yes all done just waiting for the big day

Not doing too bad this year considering I am a carer for my sick husband, we still love to celebrate Christmas though no matter what. Merry Christmas Zee!

I'm happy and thankful for all we have and are blessed with.

little people are hard-wired, they have already cut the carrots and baked the cookies, bought extra milk, and are going to bed early, the 2 boys are set , they even made me put lights on the roof so the big man can see

Have A Very Happy Christmas and a Safe, Peaceful New Year. Surely things around the World can only get better?

I don't celebrate holidays, only graduations, weddings and anniversaries! I'm waiting for the Real Life coming soon through our Savior, Jesus Christ according to his Father, Jehovah God, Creator of Jesus and all things! ;-D

Hope everyone has a safe and happy Christmas holiday season

Merry Christmas everyone. I was looking for one last present yesterday but couldn't find what I am looking for. Mum is in hospital so thought it would be nice to get her a bed jacket. Wrong time of the year. Oh well.

Thanks Zee! I hope that you and your have a great one as well :) I have most of everything done, I haven't wrapped a few gifts, I'm sure to have that done by this weekend though. I wish all of my fellow Rewardia members to have a good one, if you can't make it good, just please make it through it, brighter days are ahead and God loves you! Merry Christmas!!

Everything done, just have to shop for veggies at the weekend. Don't need to get much as we have shops that will be open most of the holidays, but I do like to buy fresh veggies day before christmas.

Almost all, just a few things for the last ones, like people at work or some relatives I rarely see!

I am ready! I leave the fresh food shopping until last (like everybody else in the mad house!) Merry Christmas to everybody!

I start my christmas shopping in June. I have many grandchildren and great grand children Looking for a REAL Read, check out my Book - Matriarch To Madness. Sold on Amazon etc. Happy Holiday Everyone

A Joyful Christmas and a Blessed New Year to all Rewardia Members & Staff...Let usnot forget amidst the gaeity that Jesus is the Center of it all

Nearly all ready just a few more groceries to get for Christmas lunch. Wishing everyone a wonderful Christmas with your families.

Christmas is always a good time to rejoice 😊

All done and wrapped by the 2nd Dec. HOPE EVERYONE HAS A GREAT CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAREdited 21-Dec-23 07:38am

a very merry Christmas to you all. My husband and i are dealing with the after effects of covid, and i have surgery in january, so no parties or anything else here.

I’m moving house so Christmas is taking a back seat in terms of being prepared but it will work out. Sometimes the least prepared things work out to be spontaneously fun

Yep...until the stores close, when I will suddenly remember something crucial. This is when ... I once again ...become a " re-gifter" ...Sorry, Aunt Nancy. Hope you like that toy soldier nutcracker on the bar shelf you've commented on. It's about to be yours!

Marry Christmas 🎄 everyone and a happy new year

No I can't believe it that time angen

Yes! All ready. Love Christmas! Merry Christmas everyone!

Christmas will be a sad affair this year as 12 weeks ago lost out eldest daughter to cancer.She was 31 and has a 9 year old daughter who we will try and give a lovely christmas to with her aunties,uncles and cousins and great great mother

Almost

Thank you. Merry Christmas to every one.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

We just moved home and it is very hectic. All is coming together and last night I wrapped up the Xmas presents.

We don't really bother with Christmas anyway - it's just another day, same as all the rest. Unless you have little kids, it's really just an excuse for retailers to have yet another "sale" (with prices no different to last week) - PB Tech here in New Zealand has already been advertising their Boxing Day, 26 December!

Thanks Zee. I am done also. Just glad to have my family here and we are blessed to enjoy each others company.

Did most of my shopping online because the kids/grandkids live in another state! I have a 88 year old friend who still bakes cookies, candy and other treats for at least 20 people every year!

I am the same every things done its going to be a lovely christmas this year merry christmas to you all hope you have a lovely day

Another day. For a short period of time, we consider peace on earth, goodwill to all. The rest of the year, we treat everyone like crap - how many wars going on now, violence most of the time - which we readily accept. I propose we flip things - treat the world like crap for the Christmas season and have peace and goodwill the rest of the time.

when you turn 80 nobody cares,the kids have their own thing going It’s just another day

With 2 stints in hospital & limited health I still think I will make it.

A day for fine food, families and fun, have a nice day, remember to listen to Snoopys Christmas, to bring you cheer and put a smile on your face…

Nope, doing nothing except the usual (eat, work, sleep, repeat)

HI , HAVE A GREAT DAY Lin r
