Holidays & Celebrations: What helps to stay positive?

I have been in the community for a while and have read many comments. I am curious as to what helps others when it comes to the Holidays. I enjoy baking for others, decorating my houseplants with Christmas lights, making things for others and designing my own Christmas cards. A few of the things I enjoy this time of the year.
The largest obstacle can be maintaining a positive attitude due to physical/emotional limitations. I have found encouragement, support and helpful information here at Mayo Connect.
