It’s Christmas Eve! What are your plans?

Posted by AangFanClub@reddit | AskUK | View on Reddit | 546 comments

I say whilst sat at my desk at work inhaling a bacon sandwich. Currently trying to think of a way to get out of playing Trivial Pursuit this evening, How is everyone else spending their Christmas Eve? I wish I was in bed!

Myself and my wife went through 3.5 months of emotional anguish this year as we separated. It was horrible, I thought the marriage was over. We have been reconciling and working through things for the last 3 months, and things feel really warm and loving, and like we have realised how much we love each other, and committed to working through our problems and growing stronger together. It was a wake up call. That being said... I am spending Christmas Eve with my wife, our two teenagers and our 2 years old (who is extremely excited for santa) watching christmas movies, and just being really thankful that we are together, when at one point I truly believed I might be spending my first christmas in over 18 years without the love of my life. I couldn't feel more festive right now. Merry Christmas everyone.

I work in a mental health team, I did a home visit yesterday to a single mum & she had nothing for Xmas, so this morning I picked her up & took her to Tesco to do a Xmas shop on £25 I had from the hardship fund. Then I’ll see another vulnerable client before lunch before going home to do admin and being on call until 5pm! My family will come over about 3.30 & we will have a lovely evening & im left feeling very grateful & lucky for all I have

Relaxing after a late shift, getting ready to go to bed for an early shift tomorrow which will probably mostly consist of snacking, party games and not much else.

My Dad died a decade ago I'm at peace with that. My Mum is in hospital with pneumonia so won't be home. My 3rd Christmas as Head Chef at the house, feeling the pressure to deliver mostly self inflicted. My daughter will be coming in the evening so I'm looking forward to that the most.

Did some last minute grocery shopping, cleaned every single corner of the house! Wrapped the last of the presents, had a cuppa with my bestie and exchanged gifts as we don’t see each other on the day.. Prepped everything for tomorrow’s lunch that I can. Now I’ve just finally sat down on the couch and the dog is eye balling me for her nightly walk! Her need to sniff every single lamppost around.. does not care that it’s Xmas eve! So I’ll get my trainers on then! I love Xmas eve night though! When it’s all calm and quiet before tomorrow when I’ll be entertaining family members I wouldn’t choose to spend time with at any other time of year!

I cleaned the kitchen this morning and sorted the laundry backlog - recovering from Covid. I had a hair cut at lunchtime and mooched around town grabbing some last minute Christmas bits. Then I went home and wrapped presents while commiserating myself over my haircut. After that, I unpacked all the decorations and put the tree up etc. Gifts are now under the tree and I have cooked dinner. Right now, I'm scrolling through Reddit and having a cider, and shortly I will attempt to relax enough to sleep. I've been so full on all day that my brain won't slow down!

I ran around getting last minute things and now I’m relaxing on the couch with a lychee martini, while my boyfriend (also with a lychee martini) makes spinach and ricotta ravioli (from scratch) for dinner. We’re both having our first Christmas together at my place, with no family obligations other than calling my parents (Australia) and seeing my extended family on Boxing Day. Will also call his dad and possibly go for a walk with his mum. We will wake up and eat smoked salmon and cream cheese bagels for breakfast with some champagne and then open presents. We’re roasting a duck with all the trimmings, making pigs in blankets and have a shitload of good cheese and crackers and fruit / nuts for a cheese board, which will sit there to be picked at all day. I’m making panettone bread and butter pudding for dessert. Apart from make and eat all that we will do fuck all. TV, suitable games. Merry Christmas xx

Mum decided to get my brother a last minute gift so after being in work all day I was desperately hunting the aisles in tesco for a box of after eights. Now in the bath and searching up homes to stick her in cause clearly she's lost her fucking mind.

I’m pregnant, everything tastes rubbish (including chocolate) I feel rubbish and I can’t wait for my little one to be here (8 months so not long to go) Trying my best to feel festive but few bits around the house to do then relax with my partner and a festive film.

I think it's about this time that many become tired of being pregnant and just want the little one here. Though I've not heard of taste being affected at this point....sense of smell yes....one pregnant friend was like a bloodhound and could sniff out her favoured treats or cravings (pineapple and custard-sometimes both together) Hope the next month passes quickly and easy with no issues.

Just wrapping things up at work, finish at midday and then I'm not in until the 28th. It's the first Christmas day I've been fully off in 8 years. The Tesco delivery came last night. 3 items missing 2 swapped out. So that needs rectifying on my way home. Being honest it feels weird. I live alone, friends all live miles away or have families of their own and I don't really want to impinge on them. So this afternoon, I'll cook the chicken and ham. Tomorrow will just be a case of prepping and cooking the veg. But I foresee once I get home the door won't be opened again until 5am on the 28th.

We did plan to make the stuffing, watch Christmas films, and play board games. What we actually did was rush to the vet because the cat couldn't breathe. She has severe heart disease, so it wasn't unexpected, but still not ideal. The vets were brilliant and got her stabilised very quickly, so she's been able to come home. Spent most of the day in the vet's waiting room.

We are waiting for it to cool before he slaps the icing on it then they are all going to decimate some peeled carrots for tomorrow. I will be ensuring there’s no blood on them. Merry Christmas everyone out there.

I’m sat nursing my newborn little girl, who we never thought we’d have due to infertility. We got so lucky with IVF on the NHS this year and couldn’t be more grateful. We had a lot of heartache this year with unexpected deaths and almost losing the pregnancy several times so trying to soak up every minute of happiness.

Went to Sainsbury's at 6 this morning, just to wander around and get more cheese. It was lovely and peaceful. Then to Costa for my usual and sat for 30odd minutes relaxing and looking out of the window watching more people arrive to do some shopping. Back home by about 8 to WFH, then shortly nipping to garden centre for a wander. After that, prepping and cooking anything that can be done before tomorrow, so less to do then. This evening, visiting my son, daughter in-law and their dogs, to cuddle and play with their dogs (and see them of course) before coming home again for a glass of port.

I can't complain but mine is super boring, I'm WFH without much to do until 4pm then I'll be off to visit my two young sons, then put them to bed ready for the big man tomorrow. Evening is probably just a movie or YouTube at home and reading what other people are doing, Christmas day is the main event as I'll drive over super early before the kids wake up. Beyond that I'm taking them to see my family down south on the Weekend, and finally seeing my Girlfriend after all that at long last. Divorced life is so weird.

They've had a bath and they're nice and cosy in their Christmas jammies, little one is having a nap and I'm watching Shrek with my oldest.

Tonight we are going to go and look at some lights in a nearby town, we will take the dogs with us too.

Well, my Mum decided I'd decorated the Xmas tree with lights that didn't match the tone of the other lights, so she decided to change the lights. But the lights went on first, and the decorations on top, so everything got tangled up and she ended up throwing decorations on the floor while swearing about how her back was aching. Now she's sulking and the tree's half stripped. I saw this all coming, and hid in the kitchen to make tiramisu. But that's finished now, so I'm going to have to go back in there, and probably redo the tree. But I might be able to hide again while I make the stock for the gravy tomorrow.

Sat at home while working (admin tidy up) husbands sick in bed with the flu and I have a mechanic coming over to replace a tyre (got a flat yesterday) so my car will be ready to go for Christmas to see family. Have a magnum of prosecco in the garden chilling ready for me to pop it at 3pm when I can log off and make party food for our Christmas eve picky tea. Which I will inhale alone and drink while he sleeps. Probably watch the holiday or the grinch. Merry Christmas everyone!

Working from home but seeing as all my teams are on PTO, I’ll do a spot of cleaning. Hopefully we’ll be allowed to finish early, then it’s vegetable preparation for tomorrow. This evening it’ll be a Christmas movie and a cheeky gin and tonic!

Just in the middle of baking a cake! I got a stand mixer a couple of months ago so now I'm baking so much as I don't have to spend ages mixing things by hand. Then I need to make dinner for when my husband gets home from work but I'm thinking about suggesting we have beans on toast and then various snacks this evening because I really can't be bothered to cook. This evening I'm going to have a Christmas bath with my Christmas bath bomb and put some Christmas PJs on ready for my traditional Christmas Eve movies of - The Snowman, The Snowman and the Snowdog and Muppets Christmas Carol!

My eldest (20) hates Christmas but all I ask of he has Xmas Eve breakfast like what we have done since he was born. Today he’s woken up with the biggest chip on his shoulder and screamed full pelt for an hour. So I lost my head with him. I’m f he’s miserable, he’ll take us all with us but that seemed to have worked and it’s pretty calm at the minute

Just about to pour a glass of wine. Everything is done and we’re going out for Xmas dinner tomorrow so no prep. To be fair I feel a bit lost. He will be home in an hour so I’m doing a buffet of baked Camembert and pigs on blankets to dip, followed by a seafood platter and some pate. Had my shower and washed my hair, laid all the matching PJs out.

Also on and off helping the wife with christmas dinner bits, veg prep and so on until she tells me to push off lol. We've got both kids, their partners and all three grandbabies round tomorrow.

I’m at work (retail woohoo) til 4 then I’m off home. My family have had a tradition for around the past 30 years where we all get KFC on Christmas Eve, similar to Japan. I’m beyond excited for a boneless banquet and some hot wings. Then I’ll stick a film on, probably 28 Days Later (I know, not very Christmassy but I’m so excited for the new film) and wrap my presents. Hope everybody has a lovely Christmas!
