Was just reading the thread about Christmas Eve Hampers being OTT after a search on here which made me think and reflect...
I do get stupidly silly over christmas
I do go ott with DD (although not always with spending on her)
I get rdiculously excited about lights, music, smells etc
parts of my childhood were extremely crap, some were brill but unfortunately something horrid did happen to me one Christmas day. I feel proud as an adult that I was able to deal with all the sh*t as a young girl but I know ever since I moved in with my husband (most of my adult life) I go a bit silly over christmas - I feel a bit weird about it all now lke 'm stupid for thinking a bath bomb and hot chocolate on Christmas eve can compensate and it's all a bit too much and contrived
my name is smellylittleorange and I am a "createtheperfectchristmas scenarioaddict"
Of course I knew this all along only just admitted it to myself feel a bit crapola now
