It’s officially THAT time of year. We’ve passed the one month to Christmas mark, and most people have already put their advent calendars out in anticipation for December 1st.
Like I mentioned in last week’s Unwind, I’m still not quite there with the Christmas spirit this year. Maybe it’s the fact that the year has just gone by too quickly for me and, despite the cold, it just doesn’t feel like it should be winter yet.
Perhaps living alone also has something to do with it. My flat isn’t big enough for lavish decorations and the novelty of donning a Christmas tree up in tinsel and baubles while belting out Mariah Carey doesn’t quite have the same appeal when it’s just a small desktop creation that is so artificial it smells of cheap plastic.
