For me personally, not terrible I guess. I didn't have to go to Christmas eve service because I had to stay home and cook, which was nice. For the family as a whole, possibly the worst anyone can remember.

My brother-in-law's dad, who seemed perfectly healthy less than a year ago, on Christmas day was at the point where the only discussion was about palliative care, but later in the evening went into renal failure and passed in the middle of the night.My other sister's side brought the flu with them. Almost everyone is in some stage of sick, I'm on my second day of taking tamiflu and am in bed with a fever. With both of those things going on, the larger family Christmas was canceled day-of.
On a much smaller side of the bad things, my sister's washing machine broke on Christmas Eve, so we're doing laundry for 13 sick people with one residential washer-dryer set.
So bad bad vibes all around.

Just heard an extended family member who was suicidal was shot and killed by cops last night. https://archive.is/gCpf8
