Hey everyone. In what has become a Christmas Eve tradition, of sorts, I would like to wish all of those Freepers who, like myself, have for whatever reason found themselves alone this Christmas Eve.
I hope this thread can, as in previous years, serve as a gathering place for the solo folks who may otherwise have little or no contact with others on this celebrated evening.
You are not alone, really.
God bless us, God bless us everyone.
I recently watched “The Perfect Game”, about a bunch of little league baseball kids. It was absolutely delightful...Not exactly a Christmas movie. More a life lesson movie.
Merry Christmas, Warsaw!
