@Bill16 big HUGS. Is it the time of the year?
When I was 7, my mother died 4 November. Subsequently I lost my extended family and connection to the women in my life.
This time of the year always gives me a feeling of uncertainty and appreciation. Not to mention the pressure to perform.
When my children were in their late teens/early twenties, I invented Afternoon Orphans Christmas. No one really does anything after Xmas lunch. The rules were bring a plate of leftovers.
We made Bucket 🪣 Cocktails 🍹
Blow up pools and blow up palm trees 🌴 Mattresses on the floor to sleep over.
Then they got married and had children. So I invented Boxmas, so that everyone could attend to their in-laws. That worked for 12 years.
Now I just winging it.
The only consistent thing in life is change and our ability to adapt.
More hugs 🫂 G
