I find this time of year incredibly stressful and am just waiting for it to be over.
I’ll be honest with you because I’m a little merry. I go to my mum’s house every year because it makes her happy. I eat her roast lunch. I eat her pudding. There will be a day where I’ll miss doing that but I’ll also be at home eating prawns and pudding and barely leaving the couch. You are not alone. Hugs to you. 🫂
She also says “I fucking hate Christmas”.
Me too. If not for my kids being so excited I’d have given up long ago and spent the day in a hotel or something. MIL and Mr Peeler have never gotten along consistently well and always seem to have a ripping argument on Christmas Eve and I’m the meat in the sandwich, trying to soften things up and focus on the kids not getting upset about it 😕
I was invited to join the lead tenant and his family at a Chrissy do down in Corinella and it sounded like a good idea 2 months ago when I agreed to it, but now I’m doing that whole overthinking and stressing thing that I do well. I don’t know that I really want to anymore, it’s a long trip away in a teeny tiny car to a place I’ve never been to meet people I’ve never met in a situation where everybody else is very familiar with everybody else there, and I’ll be the odd one out
I’ll definitely be going, I’m not going to cancel this late, but I’m just nervous about it and also wondering why the fuck I signed up to go do something on like the only day of the year I don’t have to do anything
Tell us how it went after, you never know… Sometimes our gut is right, sometimes these stressful and dreaded events can turn out to be a lot better than expected and change our brain wiring :D at the very least, you’ll see a very different and lovely part of Vic that you wouldn’t be able to go to otherwise.
The christmas tree made it to work in one piece. And I was able to separate the biscuits out to eat, so I am declaring the Christmas Cookie Tree a complete success. Much of it has already been eaten 😁
🌲>>>>🎄
It begins. Merry Christmas DT
Getting in early as I’ll be flat chat tomorrow… Hope everyone is safe and healthy and either has a great day tomorrow, or is able to get through the day and make it to the next one. Much love.
If you’re inclined, this station from somafm is good to have on in the background…
