Unfortunately this holiday season is not very cheerful for my family as we just recently lost my grandmother to cancer. She's been diagnosed for a while already, so in a way, we were already mentally prepared for it. But reading all your lovely cards is still kind of bittersweet. It makes me happy to receive your colourful and beautiful cards. I can feel the love and thought you put into them, but at the same time it also saddens me a bit, since we won't be able to celebrate anything this winter.

I did read all of your cards and it definitely did put a smile on my face, but at the moment, I do not have the energy to reply or write a personal thank you to you guys. It just doesn't feel quite right, you know? I also don't want your mail to go unanswered and leave you guys wondering if I've ever received your mail though, which is why I'm posting this. But rest assured that I'm very thankful for each and every one of you guys ♡

And please do not worry about me! I promise, I just need some time and I'll bounce right back 😊 Even though we won't be able to properly celebrate, I'll definitely still make sure that I'll get a (few many) delicious meals. I'm fine, really. It's just that if I think about Christmas and the holidays too hard I get gloomy, so I just try to not think about it too much 😁 On Friday I even went to the Christmas market and had a very cool visit at a Samurai museum; it was very interesting! (Click here for a few pictures! There's supposed to be 2 emojis but they were replaced by "?" and I can't edit it anymore 🙁)

Again, thank you guys for the beautiful cards! I love you all 🥰 heheh
