[quote=Anonymous]People who say just do nothing for the holidays if a spouse won’t help? That’s ridiculous. I think that there have been some interesting studies highlighted during the virus that shows that one reason people feel so emptied out and exhausted by shutdowns is that without the normal rituals and events to mark and celebrate the passage of time, life becomes less meaningful and time passes differently. Humans created ritual for a reason, to give beauty and joy to an otherwise mundane and repetitive existence. Giving in to a lazy husband and ignoring the holidays to prove a point might save energy, but it would make a hard time even harder than “martyring” oneself. I’m not saying a Pinterest holiday is required. PPs are talking about DHs who can’t even use their previous phones to order a few gifts and groceries. [/quote]
