Endoftheline, hope you got some sleep last night. I'm so sorry about your son, and hope you have someone in real life who you can talk to and help you cope with your loss.. 💐 to you and to everyone who had a tough Christmas

Ours was awful too. My lovely, normally healthy dad was taken ill suddenly last week and is now on life support with an uncertain prognosis. Worst Christmas ever.

Think I have norovirus. Had to chuck all the Christmas food after upchucking in the tiny kitchen. My friend / ex / babysitter came to see us and bring my kids gifts and I just cried at him, left him to babysit while I went to bed ill and then threw up violently in front of him.

endofthelinefinally my thoughts are with you. I hope you have real life support.

Irony wishing you strength and love today.

Endoftheline 🌷I’m so sorry. Loss is heartbreaking. I know it’s very little comfort, but strangers around the world are thinking about you and wishing you strength.

Oh yes, firstly I was overcome with grief, not a recent bureavement but it really floored me. I felt miserable about entertaining company and wanted it just to be me and DCs and to have a super low key day.
We were hanging on for a friend who I knew would be on her own this year, but she changed her mind about coming. It was annoying as I had made a special dessert for her that took hours, and even researched the recipe and ordered in special cookware to make it.
I felt quite tired all day and probably enjoyed it only to 50% of the days potential.
Mercifully the 26th was a lot more enjoyable and satisfying.
