I am depressed. And I haven't been "feeling Christmas" like I once used to... you know that "warm fuzzy feeling"...

I'm looking for suggestions on ways I can "catch the holiday spirit". Some volunteering or charity ideas... I'd love to work with kids.

Things I like about Christmas:I love attending midnight mass on Christmas Eve (even thought I'm Protestant)... "Miracle on 34th Street" , "It's a Wonderful Life", "Merry Christmas Charlie Brown" ...any other ideas? (Wish I had the money to fly to Bethlehem, that would be cool.)


Ways to get past loneliness? gifts with low funds? If not, perhaps I'll just paint myself green and go grinch this Christmas...
