This relates to Christmas Cards from 2 December, so yes, there is indirect Watson Whumpage.

It was she who’d insisted on the tree. John had agreed to help with little persuasion. Perhaps he, too, felt the need for the comfort of holiday rituals. It would explain the stack of Christmas cards, addressed and stamped, she’d noticed when she’d brought him up tea and biscuits. Not that she was his housekeeper, of course.

He settled the tree in its stand in the corner of her sitting room. She patted his shoulder in thanks. “Lights, next, I think.” Keep busy. Keep distracted. Eventually it would become habit. Eventually they would stop listening for Sherlock to come home.
