*sighs disappointedly*

Of course... I've only been looking forward to making Christmas a special occasion for weeks. And now that it's here everybody is annoyed and snapping at each other and nothing goes right. So, instead of having a nice Christmas meal I'll just have the same old food I always get since when you don't eat meat you're not worth having something nice anyway. So I should be glad to get some left-over noodles and rice and maybe a piece of tofu. The usual. Nothing new. I eat that 3 times a week. Oh joy...

*hangs head low* And I was really determined to have a nice Christmas. Instead, everybody hates me, says I'm always complaining (which I'm not btw. All I did was show my disappointment that the food we had planned didn't work out, but hey that's enough to be called a constant complainer) and it's my damn fault anyway. *curls up* And to top it off, I'm sick. Just had to be sick on Christmas. I feel awful. I haven't slept through for two days, I could fall asleep right there and then, my nose hurts, my chest hurts, my eyes are blurry... Just great... I hope Christmas will be over soon. And it hasn't even started yet... T_T What a disappointment...

1. Breathe. Breathe.
2. Fix yourself up and make yourself a cup of tea. That always works. Put something Christmas-y on.
3. Go out to parents. Tell them calmly and un-accusingly that: 1. You said I could eat X. Where is it? If you don´t have X what can I have? Why is it in this way?
4. try to make the best of the food. Maybe there are some nice side-dishes that you can eat? Something that goes with their food? Like, over here, a veggie could still eat the cabbage and the beat root salad, and the bread. See if there's something. Eat slowly and light candles. Try to enjoy the moment. Try to start up a conversation.
5. Bring up some old nice memory to talk about, or take out photoalbums, or an old board game. Just try to bring the holliday spirit. Read the gospel, think about Jesus, go to a mass. Nothing brings bcak the holliday spirit like that does.

I understand if the situation sucks, but try to make the best of the situation. Relax. Enjoy the small things. Enjoy the deocrations and the time off. Change what things you can change, (and do it NOW!) relax and adapt a relaxed/detatched attitude about the things you can't change, and try to enjoy the rest. It will be fine. You will have a nice Christmas. Christmas lives within you, remember? And remember that it's not a competition. If you don't have a perfect Christmas, then it's nothing you should be ashamed of.

You will do just fine. You'll see, by the end of the day you'll be sitting in a chair with Sher enjoying the daze and the pastries. Your mum will LOVE your gift!!

I love you. Happy Christmas!

Don't let all that ruin your Christmas mood, hon. I think it's tradition that there has to be some fighting on Christmas Day. I hope it'll resolve itself soon and you'll feel better as well. :)
