  • Especially around this time of year. I try to enjoy the holiday time off in what ever way feels right to me.

    This year I didn’t celebrate Thanksgiving with family. Instead my partner and I stayed home, made a simple meal together, and had a quiet evening gaming.

    I worked in retail for about a decade, so my associations with Christmas are less joyful than the average person. I don’t do any obligation gift giving, which has irritated people, but that’s fine.

    I have found I enjoy celebrating anniversaries/holidays that are important to me in some way, even if it’s not what others do - like my own traditions celebrated in ways that feel meaningful to me.
