More or less holiday spirit?

I've done little to get into the holiday spirit, the winter holiday for me being Christmas. I have brought out the Bing Crosby Christmas cd, and the Muppets too, but I don't see myself doing much in the way of decorating, baking, or anything like that. Christmas cards? Maybe? Presents? I'll likely be doing last-minute shopping. I'm not all that sad about it. I talked to Amanda earlier and she was off to buy a Christmas tree. Normally I would think ooh, fun, I need to get a tree too, but instead I thought ooh, that would take a lot of time, and not too many people will be seeing it anyway. And I would need to clean to create a spot for it. Nope, not interested.

Fortunately I'll be spending Christmas with my family, and there will be plenty of decorations, baked goods, presents, music, and most importantly, people. I can wait a few weeks for that. My season will not be spiritless. And in the meantime, I'm downtown almost every day, right on State Street, so I'm not lacking for visual reminders of Christmas.
