[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP I feel for you. I have a similar situation:( What I do is really make a big deal of the holidays with friends. I now host a large xmas party just before xmas and invite everyone that we love. It is really festive and gets us in the spirit of the holidays. I have found doing this that there are a lot of people similarly situated and we all have so much fun. There are also friends who have family in who make a point to stop at my home because I have no issue with hosting friend's houseguests and it gives a break from their own cooking. My biggest advice is create the life you want and do not focus on what you don't have. Put it together and they will come! By the time actual xmas rolls around..I love our cozy morning! If this seems overwhelming--pack up your kids and go overnight to a hotel that had a huge holiday theme and that will also put you in a great mood![/quote]
