I may have 1 or 2 extra on Christmas Day. I am just nervous that Christmas dinner will be good enough. Would not be as worried if it was just my family. Yet l am excited at the prospect at the same time. I feel extra people might add something different.

I partially relate. When i am with my family i feel relaxed but the when other people join i feel kinda annoyed. May i ask you why these people makes you anxious?

It has nothing to do with these 3 relatives it could be any 3 relatives. I feel out of my normal routine. Just my own comfort zone. I sure the visit will go well but looking forward to them leaving. Does that make sense to you?

Yes it makes sense. Think that they will not be in your house forever, after some hours they will leave.

My church is having a Thanksgiving lunch tomorrow. Are you able to go to some sort of church tomorrow? You might also be able to find some help there. Sending prayers.
