I can't complain. Well, I could, it wouldn't do me any good, but I could. Really though it's fine. Women up late, worked, my job provided catering for everyone so that was nice. Had as much to eat as if I had cooked myself, with better taste 👀

I worked all day. Wife had to work all night long, we didn't see each other, no turkey, no mashed taters. Kid made chicken nuggets and french fries. I cut up some firewood till the sun went down, watched some youtube, thought about writing and said fuck it, went to bed. I hate this time of the year. We've both lost a couple family members around this time of the year, every year it gets more and more harder on the emotions. Normally I take this week off from work, just so I don't have to deal with people cuz I tend to get a little depressed, but this year I took Christmas week off because of where it fell in the week. I tried to not think about it, tried to stay positive, but man, Wednesday was a rough day for me. Everyone in the office got talking about their plans Mon & Tue. about where they were going spend the day with their fam, and I'm like, I have no plans, no dinner, and it hit me like a Mack truck Wednesday. Got dark real quick, felt depressed and alone. I tried to shake it, then I was getting pissed at myself for feeling like this, which only made me want to break down and I fought to not do that at work. Then I woke up Thursday morning, and all was well, I was in a good mood, went to work like nothing was wrong. It's fucked up how it works like that. But yeah, I do not look forward to this time of the year.

You get used to the loneliness after a few years. Idk how it works with death, but in my case I slept and worked, it mostly felt like another day, only with work feeding me. I guess that's desensitized on my end, to a point though.

I am finding that has the years tick by, it's been 10 years now, it's getting worse. We were talking about this in the office Thursday. (I work in a small office and we've all become good friends, close knit group, everyone noticed that I was having a rough day.) and everyone has has a time of the year where they have to deal with this, and we all agreed that the longer it's been, the harder it gets and even though we try to forget and move on so we don't have to deal with it, it doesn't seem to work.
