How does watching people buy Christmas presents make you feel? I wish it made me happy or at least neutral, but all I can think about is how little I can afford to spend on gifts for my own family. I wish I budget my year better. Maybe next year, I'll start putting aside a small amount every month leading up to the holidays.

I mostly feel neutral, but sometimes I feel a bit amazed when someone drops an easy 1K or mentions 12 grandchildren and I just imagine that cost of gifts!

I wish I had started earlier. Down to the wire now, and money concerns are great.

I don’t celebrate myself, but it does make me a bit sad not to participate in a holiday that brings so much happiness and so many together

It’s looking like my job is gonna start asking us to return to the office. We have an open office plan and before we wfh FT I would save all my work for my telework days bc I can’t get shit done in the office. I’m having major anxiety about them making this decision. I know I’m not alone that people don’t want to return to the office. My ADHD and the open office just makes working from the office a nightmare and I’m feeling really nervous and kind of resentful.
