Yep. My family is leaving on the 16th to drive to Texas for Christmas, leaving the day before the snow is to hit, I can’t do road trips so I’m going to fly on the 23rd, but there is a chance I won’t be able to get out of the driveway with the snowLooks like much of the US will see very cold temps next week....extremely cold in the UK & Ireland, some areas the coldest since 2010

I know many people have similar feelings about holidays--my dad is one of them. He grew up in a somewhat messed up family, plus he's just a very pragmatic person, and he just never got what all the fuss was about. He would go through the motions to keep mom and us kids happy, because he loves us. But now that we're grown and mom's gone, I think it's a relief to him not to have to pretend to care about it anymore.Slight frost here, nothing to get excited about. This weekend its going milder again.
As for the holiday weekend, dunno. Not going anywhere or seeing anyone as usual.....I do have a large bottle of Baileys that might make the weekend go away quicker though
Holidays are fine when you have people around you who care or families and friends.......but when you don't have anyone, then its just another day in the week.
The holidays when I was a kid...dad made sure he worked overtime throughout so that he avoided the inevitable arguments with mother.
Not everyone in this world has a happy holiday season, some of us have nothing but bad memories, no family left and not alot to actually look forward to.
Same poo different day. Just like all the days that came before it and all the days that follow it.
Sorry to be a downer but when you have never experienced a "happy clappy" holiday, its kind of hard to figure out what all the fuss is about. Me and the fish will have an ordinary day, just like the other 364 days of the year.
