You, like Charlie, see beauty where others see none. You are a glass half full kind of person with a big heart.

Your heart is so big that you have a ridiculous amount of rescue dogs, you just can’t say no.

You cry easily and are no longer able to watch The Notebook because last time you did it took you over a week to stop crying.

Don’t let people push you around this Christmas, keep a bottle of wine at hand.

Either you don’t have much space OR your kids have left home.

Empty nesters have spent over 18 years making Christmas entirely about their children – and this year all the kids buggered off to their partner’s families for the big day, leaving you wondering what to do with yourself.

It’s time you stopped thinking about other people and gave yourself the treat you so deserve.

Call a friend over for some wine and cheese, read a book, go for a swim or take a bubble bath.
