Holidays
The +s: my in-laws, my parents, my siblings, my husband. Amazing food. Mimosas and gugelhopf for breakfast. People liking the gifts I'd picked out or made for them. Receiving an amazing huge and well-restored cast-iron pot, as well as homemade limoncello and a lovely necklace and bookends shaped like bunnies and a dalek for our tree. Decent weather. Dogs and cats being utterly adorable. Cocktails with friends.
The -s: extended family being jackasses. My adoptive aunt+uncle being jackasses. Having a really bad cold all through Christmas.
Overall, it worked out, but I'd still take less illnesses and jackassery, if anyone is taking requests for next year... :)
