A Christmas tree with multicoloured lights in our living room

Merry Christmas all!

I’m not trying to be grinchy, just frustrated that we never see anything showing that even a small, barely there Christmas Day is worthy of being considered special?

Why does it seem like having a v quiet and “small” Christmas is shit? Or not worth celebrating? Why can’t we see ads of the parents whose kids have flown the nest and it’s just the two of them for the first time in years? Or the elderly parent with their single (adult) child together?

I love the vibe of Christmas, but I’m getting a lil sick of everything shoving “big family/friends get-together” as being the only way to spend Christmas Day. Not all of us have a big family etc to all congregate together. Every. Single. Ad. 🤦‍♀️

I completed a total of one game this year: powerwash simulator 2. However I also bought it this year so idk if it counts 😂😂

Ahaha never gonna happen!

Ngl if I had a dominos local to me I’d be doing the same! 😂 so a curry it is for me! Enjoy :)

So glad you can be there with your mum, it’ll make this time a bit easier for her for sure. I hope you can still manage to enjoy the day a bit! Merry Christmas to you and yours 🎄

Also, it’s La Voix! She’s great fun :)

Wanna guess where I saw you in the comments? Looks like we’re doing the same module with OU!! 🤯🙌😄 (also ya for strictly!)

In the last few months I discovered Fortnite (dubbed The Midlife Crisis), switched adhd meds (much calmer and more able to focus- and switch focus!), and have started back with my psych degree via open uni (purpose! I have a purpose again!).

All in all, things are going… well!

I know that feeling all too well <3 my son is now almost 18 and profoundly autistic, and still those tiny steps make my heart swell so much! :) WELL DONE to your wee lassie!

Always forgetting this place exists… been in hermit mode, getting a lot done behind the scenes, and starting to peer out a little more now 💖

Here, have a watercolour WIP (work in progress) from hangs with my wee mum last week… and a Kenzi, when she’s so over me trying to have a lie in 😂

Thanks lovely xx

Ahh, yes thing became a bit too volatile with Max the last few months and it just became too unsafe, so since he doesn’t go to that level with his dad (plus he has more family close by to help), we had to make the decision for him to move up there. All pretty raw and very new, but it’s best for all

Your top matches my hair perfectly 😄

Thank you!! 🥰

If you see this, post the most recent photo of yourself from your camera roll. No cheating!

A pic of Kenzi, our Black and Tan female Yorkshire terrier with short hair, and a fluffy tail. She is sitting on top of the sofa, looking alert at something off screen. Her tongue is poking out and her ears are pricked up. She is like a meerkat on lookout duty!

Here we see Kenzi (13), carefully scanning for predators who may attack her home and family. She has a particular aversion to uniforms with “Royal Mail”, or “DPD”, and is ready to alert the pack at any moment. This has, no doubt, been key to her survival for so many years.
