Merry Christmas to you and yours Sandy. This was a nice addition to the so busy but so cherished Christmas magic spinning that we moms and grandmoms and wives and daughters get to take part in!

I'm disabled, my wife has returned to the workforce, working nights after 26 years away, and we hope that will be enough, as we still have 4 kids at home.

But I understand the angst you describe. The secret of being contented this season seems to be accepting, really accepting, less than you want or even expect. We'll certainly have less, and we'll have to accept it. But we have good food and each other, and that's important.
