Not this year, but I have before.

You’re never alone on Free Republic.

Merry Christmas, FRiend!

My daughter is alone this year, and it wasn’t planned. She’s supposed to be with her newlywed husband and his family this year. The afternoon before their flight, one of their cats had to have emergency surgery. So they had to scurry to cancel her flight. She said it’s very weird being alone, but she’s taking good care of herself.

We will FaceTime with her tomorrow.

Merry Christmas Skooz and to all Freepers everywhere this holy night.

My wife and I are sick with a bad cold virus and she went to bed early. No friends or family so it is a quiet and lonely night. I thank the Lord for His birth and sacrifice. May the good Lord bless you all and bring you peace.

Nope.
It’s midnight.
Just got out of bed, and getting ready to go to work.

"My baby’s gone. I have no friends to wish me greetings once again."

That sounds a lot like this sad song:  "Please Come Home For Christmas".

(Hope everything brightens up soon.)

NO. They are livestock guard dogs. They have a job and they are good at it. They have places to get out of the weather that they rarely use.

I did for the sixth year now. But I did spend quite a bit of time visiting her grave site where I reminisced over the good times we had during our 40 years together.

So very sorry about your wife. Your sister sounds like my sister-in-law, who is a sad and miserable liberal. I think liberalism has a way of decaying the heart. But you’re right—with God at your side, you have never alone.

Merry Christmas to all you wonderful people here at FR!

You sound like a very loving son. We are blessed with two of those, two great DILs and grandkids.

Hubby wasn’t feeling well and now I’m also under the weather, so it looks like it will be a quiet Christmas for us.

I’m home with my dogs and movies. I enjoyed a visit with cousins recently that I count as my Christmas celebration, and friends and family are scattered elsewhere. Making my family’s cornbread dressing this morning and that’s all I need (plus gravy and jellied cranberry sauce of course)!

Had my twins over, and my ex, had dinner, watched Men in Black 3, and exchanged gifts. They then went home, I had a quiet night.

Next year I might travel somewhere warm for Christmas.
