I'm sat on the sofa having just finished watching Little Women and the surprising thing is, I'm content. This is a rare state.
We did pressies, ate, watched tv, everyone was happy. Even me.
I didn't get the charm I wanted but I got my pendant and 2 other lovely charms off my wish list. They just weren't suitable for my pendant.
He tries, he just doesn't remember or remembers the thing I said I hated which means I get a lot of gifts I really didn't want, although that's not a new thing.
My engagement ring was identical to my previous one and that was 23 years ago.
I need to learn to have zero expectations. Especially at the moment, Pete has such a hard time with everything.
It can be really hard and soul destroying. I can feel so unloved and invisible which my sensible head knows isn't true but my insecure inner child doesn't.
Anyway. Christmas Day was a good day with us having normal family time.
Normal! Ordinary! Such a rare and happy thing.
