Anybody else have a rubbish Christmas?

aww, yeah i suppose there is a bad thing about ice-cream and chocolate. keeping busy will work though - maybe you should do some things you've never done before - live a bit on the wild side so you can forget your sadness.

Got any idea's I am a very young 52 in 8 weeks so what do you think, would be wild. I am already a female night club bouncer.which is a bit off the wall for someone my age really. The only thing I don't like is heights. so any suggestions welcome.

face your worst fears hunni, you'll be so concentrated on them your sadness will go away - i'm afraid of rollercoasters see, but if i went on one i'd be terrified but all my worries would go away
heights - do it, not anything life-threatening of course but just try a little height and see what happens
and 52 and a nightclubber - go you!

Not the best Xmas I have had,My son and sister spoilt me rotten with presents (as I am sure you have seen in the thread about xmas presents) to make me feel good, and I was well pleased with all I got.I didn't won't to show my true feelings,I didn't want to spoil thing for them, but deep down I was feeling so sad,It was only a month to the date, that my hubby died and it was so strange without him,even today I would have normally cooked a roast beef dinner,but my son said he didn't fancy it, so even today was differant. I have until the 3rd of January before I go back to work in the day.The evenings are not to bad,It is the days I am finding hard to cope with.I know with time it will get better. But its now that hurts !

I know what you mean. Even though Dad never came to Bev's, it did feel a bit weird without him there. Christmas is a bit crap now anyway. Just the 3 of us. The presents were cool, surprised Bev actually got a decent camera for me. I guess it's coz I have a job and can buy what I want that makes me feel less excited over Xmas.

It's weird with him not here. Like I'll think of something and like go to myself "I'll show Dad.... oh crap, I can't". I did that when I got the new trainers. Just for a moment I forgot he was gone. I'm just trying to focus on losing weight and being the best I can be in life. That helps to ease the pain. Just knowing I'm making Dad, Sue, Nan, Granddad, etc proud of my accomplishments and who I've become.

Wow, you're a nice daughter! I'm evil, I never help round the house, I just slouch around being moody, stroppy and snide all day!
