Me neither! This is one of those things where SL does not provide an escape from rl, instead it exacerbates it!

Bah humbug :D

/me hates shopping with a passion.

I haven't done any! I don't own land so nothing to decorate and have all the seasonal clothes i need already from my wanderings. I'm not going to be online much during the hols anyway.
I have left a freebie box for people at the hangout, though its not very christmassy. That is the sum total of my SL xmas shopping lol.

Done! Bought some trees and things for my garden.
Other than that, I made my own presents and just need to finish the last bits of my dress and then I'm ready to party :D

/me runs off to find her sewing kit

With all the stress of RL Christmas preparations, I have simply chosen not to do Christmas in SL. Don't get me wrong, I love the holiday and enjoy sharing gifts, but the thought of doing it twice runs counter to why I escape to SL. Am I a horrible person?

Last year I didn't get gifts as such, I sent out a HUD Christmas card that I drew and put animating snow on it and stuff. This year I may have to give out the same card as I won't have time to do one unless I get stuck in on Sunday and Monday.

However all of my friends are getting freebie versions of my current avatar project with beta versions now if they want them so that should count I hope :)

LOL no it doesn't ... these are people I'd be buying gifts for RL if I could. One of them (hey see if you can guess who might be this lady), she is very much SL is SL and RL is RL ...

The other one ... well, for him it just would be tricky for me to get something to him that I'd want to get :)

And yeah welcome :)
