{Cutsie Christmas Crap}

Cutsie Christmas Crap, that's what I've got and I've got it in abundance. Where it came from nobody knows, why I bought it, I have no idea, why I can't seem to get rid of it is a mystery to me. I have accumulated cutsie Christmas crap that I don't put out anymore, I don't know if I ever did (well, I think that I wen thru a phase when I lived in Hawaii), but when we started to really not stay home for Christmas I put less out at Christmas, but even when we did, I by-passed all the cutsie stuff. So, I now still have it and we just re-pack it back every Christmas and the movers pack it from state to state, but I can't get rid of it. Why is that? I should just donate it, right? I should donate it to the needy. I should donate it to some other poor sucker who in a couple of years is going to ask themselves why they bought this ugly stupid cutsie Christmas crap at the local goodwill store when they could have been buying something much more productive with their hard earned money, even a loosing lottery ticket at the local 7-11 would be a better bet then this stuff. So, what to do?? I can bet what to do because I have already started doing it. I have already started to re-wrap it and put it back in the Christmas boxes to be put back in the attic for next Christmas. So, it will only be 365 days until you get this post again. Start marking your calendars, I know that you can hardly wait!!

I think you bought that "cutsie crap" because you had little kids at the time. Now that they've grown up a bit, you don't use it but somewhere deep down you can't get rid of it because you remember how much they loved it.

I actually purged a lot of my CCC (cutsy Christmas crap) last year. But only stuff that didn't hold special memories for me anymore. I have stuff that I don't use, but is special to me that I look at, get all melancholy about, then pack it back up every year...
