I used to love the holiday season, but those days are long since gone.  For 
me I think it is not having my family around on the holidays, and not being 
able to afford to travel to be with them.

I come from a pretty close family that always did holidays and birthdays 
together.  I didn't appreciate it when I still lived there, but now that I 
have been away for 15 years I really miss it.  For a number of years Ann's 
family lived here in Tucson and that helped a lot, but they have all moved 
away and it is just the two of us now.  To me, the holidays have just 
become another day, nothing better, nothing worse.  I don't get depressed 
about them, but I don't see them as being anything special any longer either.
