Oh the irony of loving winter but disliking the associated holidays. I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Same here. I have neither the religion of the germanic peoples who 'invented' Christmas nor the religion of the ones who incorporated it later (or any), but I can appreciate lights, warmth and people who are important to you getting together at a time of the year when it's cold and grey and dark for 16 hours a day. That's why and how the winter solstice was originally celebrated and I get that.
