Christmas is nearly here. I’ve got my tree up but I’m not feeling my usual joy. Every penny I spend I’m conscious of it. My granddaughter went into my fridge last night looking for a smoothie and it made me think about how long it is since I’ve done an actual shop. Must be months. Why is life so hard at the moment? When is it going to change? How is it going to change? I grew up in the 80s when times were hard but I was shielded from it. Things are so different now to then. It’s all about showing off on social media. Showing what you have. Showing what the kids have. Sad hard times.
