"It's the most horrible time of the year" I sing this every year. Lol. Christmas is the worst. A horrible nightmare that lasts too long and gets too much hype.
I saw in a shop today they're already selling Christmas sweets, calendars and I saw an advert on TV and it's not even been Halloween yet! But it begs the question...
What are you doing this Christmas?
Undoubtedly I'll have family over. The lights will be too bright. I'll be forced to socialise. And I'll have to go to the Christmas work party. December is a long old month. I hate it. Please someone shoot me with a sleeping dart and let me sleep through it.
Sorry for posting so much today, my brain is in an accelerated mode, I’ve been chatting to my wife, what we would love to do is spend a Christmas at a homeless shelter, the Dutches is a District Nurse and would love to make sure people are medically okay. I’m happy cooking and working on the mechanics of the day. I know my anxiety would go ballistic but also know, once I listen to the people I would be okay. I’ve always been conscious that my life has been near to me joining the homeless. It’s very close to me how some young people become homeless because of abuse by adults.
No don't be sorry and if you feel it then post and enjoy. I don't respond to everyone because I'm really anxious but I do read all your comments and I've enjoyed reading each one, a lot resonates with me and for once in my life I don't feel alone.
That's a lovely idea of yours and your wife. I did that at a children's home with my mum as that was her work and it was both upsetting and lovely. The people worse off are some of the nicest people out there.
