OCD is not an adjective.  It is not a personality quirk. It is not synonymous with being organized.  It is a complex and debilitating mental health illness that affects people of all ages and walks of life, and is defined by the presence of unwanted, intrusive thoughts and repetitive actions. 💙 I am an OCD warrior and I fight for my son. 💙

Re: Another Holiday Either/Or
1. fruit cake or peppermint canes ..... BOTH!!
2. caroling or listening to radio ..... RADIO and all my Christmas CD's
3. coordinated gift wraps or lots of pretty papers helter skelter .... I'm a helter skelter girl or in other words, whatever I can find in the cupboard (notorious for forgetting to buy or not buying enough wrapping paper!)
4. egg nog or ______________ ..... eww on the egg nog. It's a summer Christmas for us so it's usually lots of pink bubbles (and margueritas at my friends annual Christmas Eve Cocktail Party)
5. bows and ribbons or tape and hope it holds ... see #3 above - I'm lucky if I have paper let alone ribbons or tape. Some years the gifts have been held together with photo splits or staples!!
6. big Christmas eve dinner or Christmas day.... Friends Cocktail Party Christmas Eve, Christmas Brunch on Christmas Day (long standing tradition as I never wanted my son to have to have to pick between me or his father on Christmas Day & that way he had no guilt about going to his dad's family for the big Christmas lunch/dinner. Later it kept on working as he didn't have to pick between me or his partner's family). Our favourite though is Boxing Day - the day after Christmas - it's the best because I meet with all my friends, we bring all our leftovers and have a relaxed party with all the Christmas tension gone. This year it's gone to be even better with a "virtual Boxing Day" online with Jules, Janet & Pam!!!
7. addressed your cards yet or not ... um no, but does it count that I take them to work every day in the hope that I will do them during my lunch hour?
8. mistletoe or kissing ball or smoochies in passing .. honey, I'll take whatever I can get!
9. Mr. Santa or Mrs Santa does all the work ... Mrs Santa does it all!
10. Best gift you ever ever got....fill in the blank! ... too many good things in my life to ever pick just one!
