We’re giving Christmas a miss this year, more or less. We’ll have a few decorations up (basically, the mantlepiece will have a fir bow and some lights. But, no tree, no presents. We’ve spent too much this year doing online shopping for everything we can, and I don’t see much point in buying even more (and unnecessarily). We aren’t allowed to travel out of the area (Pandemic regional lockdown) and ALL family branches are located outside of our area. No one’s allowed to travel INTO our area either. It will be a very quiet Christmas, which suits my husband and still-at-home son. I miss our granddaughter, and she’s very sad that she can’t visit us. I think all this isolation is hardest on the young children that can’t quite comprehend the seriousness of the situation. Hopefully, there will be a vaccine in the next year, so next Christmas can be more like normal. :(
