Exactly, Ticked off totally destroys serenity. I find myself wanting to say crabby things like: "When I was young, blah, blah, blah" ... and that is a sure sign of inflexible old age. No-one cares, nor should they.

I find deep breathing helps. People probably think I'm having some kind of allergic reaction.

I wish I loved Christmas but I don't, and I never have. I tolerated it and cut down Christmas trees and decorated the house and cooked turkeys and stood in line for Care Bears and Cabbage Patch Dolls. But I've never liked Christmas. Bah Humbug. I know some people who get very, very excited and really love Christmas. I wish I did.
