Christmas Day

 

So this is my fav photo from a somewhat subdued Christmas Day due to the restrictions put upon us at lastminute.com by an infuriating BoJo. Because I'm in a support bubble with my daughter and son-in-law, it thankfully meant that we could still spend the day together, something I was extremely grateful for. But it still left a gap where other members of our families should have been 😥

We had a lush dinner, cooked mainly by James I think and then settled down to watch Annie open her myriad of presents. She likes to rip pieces off the paper and drop them on the floor before reaching for the next piece! Because she enjoys this more than what's actually inside the wrapping paper it didn't take her long to blitz through the pile 🤣 She has enough doggie treats down to last a seriously good portion of next year and of course some new toys!

We had a late pudding and then took Annie out for a walk around the Langley Park site, it's much bigger than I'd anticipated, lots of houses there now as the build nears completion. It was an uber chilly night but good to see people's festive lights on, some houses having put on awesome displays.

Home by 19:30 as James and Julia were going to do a family Zoom call with James's famalam, again it made me sad that I'd been allowed to meet up with them and other people hadn't. Whilst I am more than grateful for the support bubbles, they have helped to keep me sane, I still feel as though it's all so unfair and kinda makes me feel as though I am doing something wrong even though I'm not 😥
