Festive thoughts
Merry Christmas one and all!
I am relentlessly cheerful as the big day approaches, determined to have a good time no matter what. I've been fortunate to have never had a bad Christmas though, so that makes the day easier for me. My family can just about get along for the couple of days we are back together without too much in-fighting.
My German on the other hand is not a Christmas fan, and is being dragged to my Mum's house even though he would much rather be doing DIY work on his house. He's not sure he can remember having a good Christmas though, and when you don't have good memories of Christmases past the forced family jollity can grate I suppose
We have agreed a compromise whereby he will attempt to enjoy Christmas and I will try not to hate driving as much as I do (driving being something he enjoys and he cannot understand why I hate it).
Festive compromises!
