Merry Christmas to All. This year is a quiet Christmas. The family is aging. Most can't travel right now due to their stage in life. This is a part of Christmas rarely spoken about. Yes, you hear one or two, they're alone. This is the one about dealing with the Family. For those ofuus inins Gen X and older, it was a milestone to be included in the holiday presentations and hosting duties. As we get older and are dealing with dying parents we are limited as to what we can do also. It's time for Generation Y/Milennials to step up. We canceled Christmas this year because NOT ONE of the 4 younger adults could be bothered to step up. They think only of themselves and forget what we did for them to make Christmas nice and memorable. There were times I worked before I put on the presentation because I was a Home Health Aide and my clients needed to get ready, also while dealing with a sick mother who was getting near the end of life. Step up. At least return calls. It's time for you to step into ADULT shoes for Christmas Merry Christmas 🎅 #ThisIsMyChristmas #ChristmasJoy #WarmMoments

Too Loud, Too Full, and Exactly Right

Our Christmas is loud. Someone is always talking, someone is always laughing too hard, and the kitchen never seems to empty. Kids run around asking when gifts can be opened, while adults argue about food that’s already burning. It’s messy and overwhelming, and at some point, I had to step outside just to get some air. But standing there, hearing the noise from inside, I realized this is what I missed all year. There’s no perfect moment and no quiet reflection here. Just people being together, imperfectly. Plates pile up, voices overlap, and the day flies by before anyone notices. This Christmas isn’t calm or aesthetic. It’s chaotic, warm, and full. And honestly, I wouldn’t trade it for anything else. #ThisIsMyChristmas #LoudChristmas #FamilyHoliday #HolidayChaos #ChristmasJoy
