So Mr madthing does shift work and will be working this Xmas. Actually He is working on the 23rd, 24th, 24th. 25th And 26th Dec. On Xmas eve he is working the afternoon/eve from lunchtime. On Xmas day he will go out before we are awake and be home 4-5pm. Boxing day he will go out lunchtime till about 11pm.
My parent's are spending Xmas with my sister and my mil won't ever come for Xmas as she has to go to church and is paranoid about travel at that time of year incase it snows she is less than two hours away.
Anyway I will be on my own with the 5madthings. I have done it many times before so am used to it but tbh this year feel quite crap and sad about it. The kids will prob save some presents to open once he is home and we can have dinner when he gets in but he will have already had a Christmas dinner at work.
So if your partners work what do you do to make it fun/special?
Or if you just want to moan about it as well, feel free!
