I don’t do a lot of Christmas shopping, mainly I am a card and letter sender to my relatives and Friends… There’s only me at home by myself, and usually I get together with my siblings and families for Chrissy lunch, which has been here at my place over the last few years, since I had my in 2018..

Yes we enjoy our family gatherings, they are fun occasions and far more important than any presents

I have to say I do agree, family get togethers are far more important IMO!

Oooh as soon as the first present is bought, I’m off! This year everything is a little out of kilter though so I’m already feeling a little behind. Katie

Hi! Sorry, I’ve been absent what with trying to get the book finished and now doing book proposals! Time consuming to say the least and of course it might all come to nothing! I’m well thanks, but what of you? How are you? I have much to catch up on with your blogs for sure! X

Struggling right now. Mental health really took a nosedive. My mum is also in hospital so I’m really worried about her. Other than that though I’m okay I suppose lockdown has been so hard though xx

I hope your mum gets better really soon ❤️. Mental health is tough huh and can be really hard to create a new routine which works during lockdown. Stay active and stay sane is my motto! Sending you big hugs. Katie xx

I usually don’t buy my relatives presents for Christmas. That being said, I love looking at Christmassy stuff in shops.

No we don’t. His birthday is in November, so I really wouldn’t know what to gift him for Christmas.

Well that’s pretty close to Christmas, so I can see why you don’t do gifts at Christmas time!

I no longer buy Xmas or indeed birthday presents. I now buy as and when I see something I know family and friends would like. Spontaneous gifts are much more fun.
