We’re all sick over here, too. The flu has taken over.

We've gone to colonial Williamsburg during the holiday season a few times and it's actually very lovely. The decorations, carolers, and hot beverages are all very comforting and quaint. "Dickensian" is an accurate description.

Same here. Fortunately the Robin Hood dropoff spot is convenient for us, so we occasionally end up taking the overflow there.

My mother just came down with something nasty. Not COVID, according to the at home tests, but it hit her hard and fast.
Hope you feel better soon, friend.

Lol At Home is the Walmart of Home Goods. Last year I got my brother a "hers" pillow I couldn't find a "his" match of. Told him he could offer it to ladies when he had them over.

Seconding someone's suggestion of becoming a regular somewhere. Guests who come in, remember my name or are just genuinely kind, I'm typically inclined to be a little more "generous".

I commented, because I’m hanging out by myself. I’d rather be alone than deal with people like you in real life.

As others said, can’t go wrong with a tacky light tour or Lewis Ginter.
As for today, we’re going to decorate for Christmas which is my favorite… and try to ignore my Sunday Scaries since I’ve been off for a week and actually didn’t work much at all. Tomorrow should be fun 🥴

I’m right there with you. My Dad had a massive stroke Christmas Day last year. He lived, but isn’t the same. Christmas used to be my favorite holiday. This year I’m not feeling it at all.

I lived out there until recently. An old friend used to work there, hooked me up on sweet cheap stays.
I'm so happy to be out of "The Valley of the Sun". That shit melted my brain.

Oh, I've been there! Didn't try the robes, but.
That being said, you couldn't pay me to go back to Phoenix or the surrounding valley cities. I moved back here for a reason.
You travel out that way, much?

Good thing I comment to please other people. 🙄
Sometimes people post ridiculous questions they could easily find on Google— I’ve actually had OPs thank me for reminding them to Google sometimes.
If you’re going to criticize me, speak for yourself, not the whole of Reddit.

I loved that house, too! I think I googled it last year & found a web page for them that said it was over.

Seasonal attire choices are part of it.
This is the misanthrope in me talking; people are also more likely to get into petty arguments with their loved ones and strangers as the stress of Christmas day approaches. I love watching people get all out of shape for the capitalist aspect of a religious holiday.
