I TOTES understand. Even we have issues with summertime Christmas in some ways, with, as you've seen, that crazy doubling thing where it's summer and we know it's summer but we have movies and cards and carols and cheesy American Christmas songs (not the same thing) and even FOOD CHOICES that are all "dashing through the snow on a one horse open sleigh!"
And I also know what Christmas in the Wrong Place feels like. It feels WEIRD. Next Christmas will probably feel less wrong. But it won't feel like Christmas is supposed to, no matter how many nice times you have and how many people are pleasant etc. It can still be good, but just different. I had four Christmasses in London. One of my favourites involved me being ALONE BLESSEDLY in our house and having tomatoes on toast in bed in front of the telly before walking down the canal to my friend's house. NONE of them had snow either. SWIZZ! (My dad informed me that even in Norn Iron in Anciente Tymes they didn't always have snow. DOUBLE SWIZZ!)

In conclusion, non ((((HUGS))) hugs.
