Feeling a bit DITD (down in the dumps) myself.
Best to remind ourselves that probably 50% of the jolliness is fake, and, unless you're spending it with kids below the age of 12, or people that both a) you like and b) you don't normally spend time with, it's unlikely to be more than a pretence.
Right now I have exactly no Christmas food (I lie, there's some out of date sprouts in the freezer), and am still lacking sufficient presents to ensure that all (adult and near adult) children feel equally loved. ms#5 is inconsiderate enough to have a birthday on Christmas Eve which adds to the pressure.
Mon and Tue next week are blocked out with mother's hospital appointments, so it might well yet be turkey twizzlers and oven chips.Comment

Goodness me, the lamb is roasting, the lamb stew is boiling gently away on the cooker.
The rice pud is quietly cooking.
Couldn't be arsed to cut the leg of lamb up, so I'll be eating it for a fortnight.
The bone will come in handy for the next stew.Comment
