6 things you can totally relate to if you have a crazy Christmas mammy

It’s the most wonderful time of the year... well, for most people.

Christmas means that the whole family will be back together again soon to celebrate. Hooray. BUT, it's not always 'joy to the world and peace on earth' for everyone, especially for our mammies who often need their annual breakfast brandy to get them through the day!

For some reason, this time of year is THE most stressful time for mammys... the house MUST be cleaned should any unexpected guests arrive, and don't even mention the chaos of Christmas Day - getting to mass on time and pulling together a Christmas feast with the hoover on full blast! But perhaps we can encourage mammy to take a leaf out of A Bad Moms Christmas and hopefully she'll just say, 'Feck it! Feck it all!' That way, we won't have to deal with the following. (LOVE YOU MUM.) 1. Being woken up at the crack of dawn Because it’s Christmas, and lie-ins are frowned upon. There’s so much to get done like basting the turkey, gift giving and popping in to say 'Happy Christmas' to the neighbours. It's only one day, so smile and fake it 'til you make it... or at least until you have downed your first glass of vino.

2. Getting to mass on time Christmas is the one time each year that everyone in the family is happy to go to mass without the mammy in the family having to goad or guilt anyone into making the effort. But being late is never ok in mam’s book so if you're still in your pj's half an hour before you're meant to leave, you'll hear all about it. Avoid the drama by making sure you're ready from the get-go and then spend the rest of the morning lazing about in your Sunday best 'til it's time to meet and greet. 3. Slowly but surely we'll be allowed to consume food and drink labelled 'strictly for guests'

‘Can we eat this now or is it for Christmas?’. Enjoy every beverage, every bite of deliciousness - it won't be long until turkey is the only thing on the menu. 4. Remote wars and family feuds So while you might be terribly excited to welcome home a family member from Australia two days before Christmas, by Christmas day, you'll all be made cranky by the food coma brought on by the dinner itself and a few post-dinner drinks and are bound to end up fighting bitterly over the remote and debating angrily over what to watch. 5. Someone will get accused of ‘ruining Christmas’ Probably for refusing to wear a hat from a cracker, sticking three hotels on Mayfair, or some other minor misdemeanour. But, Christmas is ruined for your mam and she can't wait until it's over.

6. Rundown on local gossip you just don’t care about Marriages, engagements, deaths, pregnancies both planned and unplanned will be trotted out by your mum as she excitedly informs you about people you barely know. She's going hell for leather on all the local goss. Smile sweetly and sip on your wine.
