Come and stop me being the Grinch and spoiling it for everyone.
This year has been for many reasons really utterly shit, be glad to see the back of it. My Mum is currently also ill with a serious condition which will eventually be terminal and has not been at all well.
The kids are both older and asking for money or vouchers of something.
They are in school until Friday the 22nd (??!) so we cannot go to any of the Christmas stuff on offer locally as much of it is during the day in that last week before.
We are pretty much just holding thread financially.
Seriously I see everyone out shopping and at stuff and brass bands playing and I've had enough.
Bah humbug!
