I hear you...

We have what I like to call an 'Eye of the hurricane' situation for Christmas:

Before the event, we will make time for some friends and some family, asking them kindly to not bother us over Christmas...

We will do the 'Visit the relatives' lark after the event; thanking them for not bothering us over Christmas...

But on the day, it's all about the present Mrs Pooflake and the flakelets. That makes it perfect, and it has been.

I could ramble on further (you know I could) but as a special Christmas present I will trim about 4000 words from this post and say 'I hope you had an awesome one Smash Monkey'.

Cunning.
They're never going to visit you over Christmas because they hate you. This way it feels like you're alone because you've asked to be alone.
