Last year, a couple of weeks after 2nd BD, my DD's and I decided that Christmas would be at eldest DD house, she has the only granddaughter. H came too, it was a bit awkward but not too bad. I have always done a roast dinner but we decided to have cold meats and salads instead. A definite change.

This year it's the same, at DD house, GD is now 2 and just getting into Christmas!!! Again, a cold lunch which I am actually looking forward to. I had planned to take a short camping trip with my dog and youngest DD afterwards but as it turns out, H and I have a business trip and he has suggested a day sightseeing as well. Should be interesting!

I only have the youngest DD living at home and we just couldn't be bothered to put up any decorations this year, and to be honest, it doesn't really bother me that much.
