No Christmas spirit.

The last thing I want to do is to spoil any jollification for the millions and the many on here who just love Christmas. All good wishes to you and I really envy you , I wish it was me . But after a lifetime of disappointment, relieved only for the few years when my children were small and full of anticipation Christmas has not been a good time for me. I have enthused for the sake of others but it just hasn't done it for me. Am I on my own?

I am so sorry for those who will be sad . I have decided not to take part in any festivities, I will attend Mass and Matins , I love late Christmas Eve , there is something in the air and everywhere there is silence .

* anno* I hope my DD will find the fulfilment you found in her single status. She seems to be struggling to find a light at the end of the tunnel at the moment. Not helped by my GS having CFS and dreadfully depressed. He is 16 and we worry for his immediate future.

How wonderful that your DGD is there to cheer you Ann - that is great news. Enjoy.
