The busy season

I keep hearing everyone refer to their "busy season" doing this and that for Christmas time. I don't have a job and we finished shopping months ago, but can I still claim a busy season? I swear in my church calling, Thanksgiving/Christmas is the "busy season." If you wonder what I'm doing all the time I can almost guarantee it's something for Relief Society. I love the opportunity to serve, but I don't want anyone (outside of my ward) to feel I'm being neglectful or anti-social. I love all of you!!
