Enjoy the time with my 2 little boys because I literally just lost my job yesterday, lost both grandparents this year and now my brother also has melanoma. So yeah gifts would be great but I think family time means alot more to me right now. And this isn’t a SOB story either. Im just a genuine guy who’s ran out of luck 🙁
My fiancée and I are looking forward to making it back to our family’s country (Ireland) for at least the tail end of the holidays!
Amazing stuff!

We hopefully will all meet up on Christmas at my daughters – three families ten people. If my son’s mother-in-law still plans to visit from Poland those plans will have to change but my daughter ordered the turkey today!
