What I really want is a festive celebration with family and friends. I want food that I don't have to cook - homemade, not restaurant food. I want someone else to take care of me for a change, if only for a little while.
But (sigh) I will content myself with the next best thing - a low-key celebration with my family, pride in providing them with a nice meal and gifts that will make them happy, and thankfulness for what we have and so many others don't.
