Did anyone else not really grow up with any Christmas traditions or celebrating it? I see folks getting stressed out over it, and it's just another day for me. The decorations and lights are nice.

I think some folks just have holiday stress. I knew a few people growing up that you didn't talk Christmas to them until they got the house covered in lights or that they are just plain miserable for December.
we usually had a small tree and hats on gargoyles. but later we worshipped christmas stitch..... I mean chrstmas stitch became our tree kinda thing. so decorating I never really understood either.
It lost all meaning to me once I started to see how it's purely a money grab for large corporations. I'm betting few could honestly answer what the meaning is anymore. It's just how much you can buy.
We had Christmas traditions until about 2003ish, maybe 2004, and then everything kind of fell apart. People moved further away, the drive got to be to expensive, etc. and my mom passing in 2012 sealed the deal. We haven’t had a Xmas gathering in a really long time.
