Every Christmas (usually Christmas Eve) I listen to this song at least once to prepare me for my family Christmas get together. After you listen you might get it. Can't believe it actually gets worse each year. Please don't take this wrong I'm very grateful for my family, the good parts. Sometimes the bad parts try to outshine the light.
If you saw my post asking about cooking an old fashioned cookie well I'm not cooking them now. Sure it's less burden on me. You see even if I don't feel like doing something or don't have time I enjoy doing for others even for those that try to test my sanity. My dad called today said he found a recipe. Me: I have mama's recipe. Dad: they only take four ingredients. Wish you would cook them at my house. See that's his control coming out. (I cook in my kitchen because I have everything I need and know my oven). He can't ask you to do something and trust you to handle it. Dad: Me & T (his friend) are cooking them and you can help. In my older age I rarely fight back with him because the stress on me isn't worth it. Also there's no winning with a narcissist. Me: why do you ask me to do something then take over? Dad: you have enough on you. That's his BS if he was really worried he wouldn't have asked me in the first place. I just left it alone. So I'll do some praying and listen to my country song about dysfunctional families. Even if you don't like country music listen it's a great parody about family differences.

By the way the singer with out the hat, Troy Gentry and I share the exact same birthday, 4567. I didn't find out till several years ago he died tragically in a helicopter accident. No big deal except I always thought my bday was unique. Would love to have talked to him about people's reactions or no reaction when they ask for your bday🤣
