It's so nice to be wished Merry Christmas! Despite the hardships of caregiving, I hope that everyone feels a bit of joy in their hearts on this special day.
Merry Christmas to everyone on Aging Care forum! To those who celebrate Christmas as the Birth of Jesus, and to those who don't, may this day bring you peace, understanding, wisdom, and Joy!
The love and joy just keeps spreading.
I gave away white diabetic socks (ordered too many as health insurance benefit spend down-use it or lose it). There was some surprise wrapping and ribbon from neighbors gifting to me, a real surprise! So I started wrapping up the socks, and a few night lites as dH was cooperative to deliver them.
It came upon a neighbor that no one likes, and no one acknowledges. Sure he needed a gift, a card, but dH gave me a look. "What?" he said. I said, "It is a matter of your heart" -whether he wants to deliver it or not. We never have met him, concerns that our selected card with nativity would offend others, but dH makes a good delivery man. He did it! Why would I need to be silent, but others don't need to be silent?
Even though I was late, so happy to be a part of it, the celebration of Christ's birth.
I for one always feel so happy when the day itself is just behind me. When the stressful lead up has magically dissapated & left fond memories already of another year, a lovely time spent with family & friends.

So happy Boxing Day everyone too 🥰
Very nice, save for what happened last night (another thread) it was surprisingly not too bad, especially being at the facility.
