What Would Make The Christmas Holidays Better For You?

[Britt.f7]

If we wouldn't have to do it that would be nice. I hate the large gathering with my dad, stepmom and siblings families. Just so stressful. I do end up having some fun while there, but the anxiety leading up to it isn't any fun.

It is only my son and I and my ex. I miss having more people. I would like more help cooking and cleaning.

Yeah, I miss having more people as well. I arrange to be with clients on Christmas and do the family thing on Christmas Eve. If I am not working I go to the camp with my mister and we have a private celebration.

I gave away the Christmas tree to my sister. And all the decorations are boxed away. I don't feel much like celebrating Christmas this year. If I could just go on vacation and just forget all about the Christmas frenzy that exists. To sit on a beach somewhere in the sun would make Christmas better for me.

This year if I'm not working, since our Y's closed, I'll either be at the fish camp or I'll do a voluntary commitment. I need to stick to the Christmas Eve "tradition" and honor my own need for some peace and calm on Christmas day.
