Holidays used to be my fav time of year. Now I can’t wait until they have passed. I still decorate my work area and wear the “ugly” sweater and participate in all the activities at work. On the outside I look happy but on the inside I just want to cry. Maybe it’s having spent the last 8 christmas’ alone. I’m single and can’t get the time off work to visit family.
