Christmas and new year survival support group

Can I jump on the bandwagon? I'm not looking forwards to Christmas or NY this year.

Love the idea of hanging baubles on trees when walking the dog.

How is everyone doing today?..

Today was the Christmas Craft Fair at the farm where my daughter works. Would you believe that some people had a go at her because they felt the admission price of £1 per person was too much!!!My daughter phoned me in tears..she is autistic and extremely sensitive to perceived criticism. I can't believe people are so mean especially when this is a small family business. I hope they choke on their calorie-laden takeaways and a plague on their smartphones

Awwwwwww pulisa I'm really sorry that happened to your daughter. My brother is autistic and has just got his first job at our local co-op and has been upset by customers already. I'm so protective of him as we don't have parents really.

Today has been a good day for me! My husband and I have just been to watch Star Wars live - Star Wars with a live orchestra! It was amazing and I feel like myself for the first time in a good while. Back to the daily grind tomorrow though lol. Xx

Pulisa, I can't tell you how much I despise those sort of people. If they don't realise the damage they do to someones wellbeing, then they need to be educated like a child. Not only did it upset your daughter, it could well affect her not wanting to attend again! And this is in one of the most wealthiest counties in the country.
You must be livid.
I do hope your daughter can get over this. x

People are horrible Pulisa, I hope your daughter isn’t put off too much by the upset.

Thank you for your kind words, Emma, Carnation and Scass xx

Fortunately the farm owners are very kind and they all rallied round to reassure my daughter that she hadn't done anything wrong. She's going back to the farm today to help tidy up-at least she knows that she is amongst people who look out for her.

Emma, really glad to hear that you enjoyed Star Wars Live! Things like this can give us such a boost. I hope your brother is ok at the co-op-it's such a worry when a careless word from the public can cause such carnage.

Oh, I am pleased to hear that Pulisa.
Thank God there are some nice people in this world.
You really wouldn't expect that sort of behaviour in a place like that.
We lost our day centre manager at the Care Home to go to work at one of those farms. She was absolutely lovely, but it was her dream job and we were pleased for her. Honestly, she was like an angel, so there are some nice people around.

I can never get my head around how some people can be so horrible and cruel...I'm I'm glad she is ok and she is back there today ..
