Lay in bed feeling so tired as we’ve all been ill recently, not covid but that other awful one that felt like covid.
I’m very into Christmas and usually do a *Lot with Dd, 4, think all the baking, activities, days out etc. This year, she’s seen a Santa (wasn’t keen) made a gingerbread house and we’ve done the tree. There are so many things left to do, see the lights, fake snow, ice skating, meet up with friends tomorrow…but I’m just so tired 😬can I knock some on the head? How much do you do?

We do a lot - we have a 4 yo and this year we've booked about 8 shows/concerts/panto/ballet, a soft play party, couple of light switch ons, two visits to Santa, Winter Wonderland, 2 kids discos. Also want to ride London buses to see the lights, and do a light trail in some gardens (not decided which one yet). We started booking back in July for the early bird discount (and front row seats). We did a lot last year as well, but I think lockdowns made me overcompensate a little! I don't find it tiring but with a lot of activities being shows I just have to turn up and sit there in the dark while the actors entertain DD! I do genuinely enjoy the events though, it's a nice vibe and I'm acutely aware that DD will be far too cool for it in just a few short years, so making the most of her childhood.
