I missed Christmas 🙁

This would be Christmas mark 3? The one where my parents gave the children stuff. And me. And Tim I assume, although I didn’t see any presents for him.

It’s not been a good day. I feel like a pretty crap mother, partner and daughter tonight. I think I’ll go to bed and see if I can feel like a better one tomorrow.
