I've been pondering over how to describe this Christmas. Because there were some lovely times - a great Christmas service, surrounded by my Church family, really good talk - challenging us to remember Jesus throughout the day. Lovely gifts, great lunch, good company.
But - it felt different. I've realised that I didn't relax completely.
Paul pulled his neck on Christmas day - he reached slightly awkwardly to hug PJ and aggravated it. And he's needed more pain meds, not just an increase back to where he was. And I think we're resigned to surgery now.................
And this meant that I was nervous during the cooking of lunch, didn't drink much, didn't relax much. So didn't have fun in the way I normally would. I did have some lovely times though.
Today our guests have all gone and we all get to collapse in a big heap, which I think is just what we need to do.
My kids, as ever were fab, and made it for me. PJ cooking brilliantly, Sarah fizzing with excitement.
