(6,926 posts)You have done what you could do. I feel the same way. Some things are done some are not. Presents to children and Christmas cards were sent. Have not done any gift baking since I do not go places. Decorations are up. I wore my decorative Christmas shirts, socks and such to the grocery store since there are no parties. Did get my hair cut yesterday because that is giving someone a paycheck.
My 77 yo sister who lives alone 20 miles away will come to our house this afternoon and spend the night. It is supposed to start snowing later and then drop into the teens overnight. It has been raining for hours. We told her to come today and not try to drive in the morning on ice.
It won't be festive but we will be warm and safe inside. I also have not played Christmas music, I have a pretty good collection.
Just trying to survive until Jan 20 when we can hope. Waiting for our turn at a vaccine, we are retired, people who have to work and face the public need them first. Never looked forward to Spring more since it has a lot more hope this year.
And that wine Advent calendar sounds like a great idea.
Stay safe.
