Leprechauns have nothing to do with Christmas trees but if they did it would be something mischievous like tearing it down. If you are looking for small supernatural creatures to put up your tree, you want to engage some of the nisser or tomte from Scandinavia or maybe the Jolasveinar of Iceland. But they are not cheap and are pretty busy this time of year. My best advice is to buy one of those artificial trees that just unfolds as you pull it from its bag.

How many leprechauns would it take to put up a Christmas tree?
Does playing Christmas music earlier in the year make people spend more money on Christmas?
The garbage played over the PA in shopping malls encourages me to get my shopping finished quickly & leave before it drives me mad. I detest the intrusion of pop music which I didn’t like the first time I heard it being forced upon me in shops, I’ve left more than one shop because of the music before now & everyone I speak to agrees with me that it’s an unnecessary racket.
How are you going to spend Christmas this year?
This year, at 23 years old, is going to be my first year not spending Christmas at my mum’s house. I am working on Boxing Day, public transport isn’t available, and there would be no way to get home in time for my shift.
So this year, I’m going to be having a bittersweet Christmas with my nephew, his mum, and her family, whilst no doubt video calling my mum, step-dad, and younger siblings.
Even though I don’t get to spend it with my usual family, I still get to spend it with other family, surrounded by love and festivities, and for that I am so grateful.

October Guy the devil saw me with my head down until I said Amen shirt

Silicon Valley promotes the October Guy the devil saw me with my head down until I said Amen shirt idea that the office is your home, you October have everything you need, and you should have giant bean bags and other amenities to be as comfortable as possible. It sounds good, but the real reason for that is so people can work all day. Having a frat or jock stereotype is completely against that October idea. (We don enthusiasts want to stay long where that kind of person exists). But companies start hiring that kind of arrogant person because of a lack of good programmers. So no, they are not promoting it, but accepting it as a final resource to get developers.

The November Guy the devil saw me with my head down until I said Amen shirt roads are made of asphalt with lots of November potholes, with culverts along the sides. They have a well with lots of water. And a cow falls off with cows and buffalos. I remember seeing some stores offering ‘Nadar and a weekly vegetable market. We wake up daily by crows, koalas and mynas. We also see many green parrots in flight groups as they hiss.

And I guess you could also include annuk. This little cross with a Made in December 1969 50 years of being awesome shirt oval ring on its head represents Amen, in other words And that’s it. And now that I think about it, it will also include the eastern star, or more commonly known as the star of David. This represents the stars who were in heaven during the time of Jesus’ birth. So I would have to say that there is also an example of a sign of life.

How can you be fair to both families on Christmas?
My family has been celebrating Thanksgiving and Christmas, every other holiday, every other year.
My family lives in 3 different states, ages range from 4–85. My mother and my aunt don’t drive anymore.
We started this tradition 20+ years ago. When family members are added, by marriage or birth, family traditions, expectations, religious backgrounds, distance to and from, ………….ALL the variables adds to the questions, “Who, where, when, and how?”
The “alternate holiday, alternate year”, works very well. No one relative is more or less important, than another. We agree to “stick to the plan”.
