Hi Smile,

Agreed! This year it totally different from last year for me but I know that regardless of whatever happens at least next year it'll all be over and that brings me peace. I hope everyone manages to find some happiness over the festive period because my goodness, do we all deserve some!

Lots of love to everyone; you're all incredible xxx

Merry Christmas to you all

Not a week in yet so all very raw in our household.

But I have pledged to go to my daughters tomorrow and have some me time.

Thank you all so much for getting me past the last couple of days,and no doubt more to come.

Big hugs to you all x

Sending love strength and hope to you all over the next few days

After what has been the most horrendous experience we have ever had and I have to say the last week has just tipped us over with SS, we received news yesterday that we can spend the whole of our Christmas with our granddaughter. To say we are beyond joy us an understatement especially as it's her birthday on Christmas Day. I don't think we will ever get over this new way of living and having the authorities that are now in our lives for at least the next 10 years but we at least can celebrate Christmas in our home with my family all together. It doesn't matter we only got one Christmas card from the neighbours and there is a significant reduction in presents under the tree and we won't see the majority of our extended families but to have my granddaughter here with us us like a Christmas miracle.
I will be thinking and will never stop thinking about all the lovely people on this forum over Christmas who have helped me remain sane and so supportive and I sincerely hope everyone will find some peace at Christmas. Tbh, I'm not sure Christmas will ever be the same again and am fearful for what 2022 brings but my Christmas thoughts, love and blessings go out to you all. Xxxx
