1. A little xanax will do the trick

If I could get certain family members to take some, that would be even better!

4. I'm actually looking forward to it. The funeral this week was awful and

it will be good to surround myself with a little bit of joy. :hi:

10. Having my wife's family over makes my girlfriend slightly uncomfortable

To difficult, and sad, to explain (my wife passed away in 1991). Its a big tent at my house on xmas.
