A mum dreading her winter holiday but she isn’t getting much sympathy for her woes, as many argue that she’s in a very fortunate position – she wants to stay at home to do Christmas shopping
A pre-Christmas getaway is most people’s idea of bliss, as it’s a chance to escape all the festive pressures and to unwind before a new year begins. But it seems as though the concept isn’t appealing to everyone and one woman has admitted she’s not looking forward to her upcoming holiday – leaving a bitter taste in some people’s mouths.
Taking to Mumsnet to share her woes, the jet-setter, who remains anonymous, was expecting people to sympathise with her conundrum, but it’s gone down badly as many people have remarked that it’s a ‘nice problem to have’. Despite the criticism, the woman has openly revealed that she is ‘dreading’ the trip and even wonders if she’s made a huge mistake booking it so close to Christmas.
“Dreading holiday in two weeks,” she wrote. “Basically, I’m going on holiday in two weeks and have spent the last week sorting out shopping etc etc and now the stress of Christmas.”
She worries she has done very little preparation for the festive period ahead of her holiday, and explained that her major fear is getting everything done in time when she gets back.
