OK, I thought I couldn't possibly feel any worse after the row with my mum, but my god, thanks, Ken C, you have just done it. Ugh. Now I feel physically ill as well as emotionally drained.
I'm glad to see that this thread isn't quite as much of a beatdown as the last one that I started.
It's not a great time of year for all of us. This does not make us arseholes or scrooges or fun-haters or whatever. Sorry we're not all so blessed.
