Come Grinch with Me- No Christmas Cheer

[ReggieKrayDoYouKnowMyName]

I’m starting this thread because I am feeling super blah. Been really unwell lately culminating in an emergency procedure to remove my appendix last week. Not feeling Christmas, not feeling jolly, can’t be fucking arsed. Think I’m a bit depressed- been ill on and off since October and not been in work, not been socialising. Trying to keep it together for my 3 and 1yr old daughter and be jolly but not feeling it at all.

So here is a thread for all who aren’t really feeling Christmas this year. Come, Grinch with me.

I'm totally not feeling it this year.
DS is 14, so no trips to Santa, the pantomime or anything, he doesn't want or need anything which should make life easier but we spend Christmas with my two nieces who are a lot younger and I can't bear the thought of him having nothing to open.
I've been asking for weeks what food I need to get for Christmas, yesterday I got a list - all the difficult to get fresh bits.
Due to illness earlier in the month I've worked every day to make up my hours and back in tomorrow so I'll bemail lucky to get most of it.
I'm really Grinching this year x

Oh yes well I'm sort of half and half. I work for emergency services so am working a lot and estranged xdh being v difficult 're the kids over the holiday just means feel very flat. Dp will be with his children and tbh I can't wait for the 7th Jan to be back to normal.

I’m sorry that you are having a crap Christmas too, but glad to not be alone. Bah, humbug!
