Is Anyone Else Alone on Christmas Eve?
Skooz's Den | 12/24/2017 | Skooz

Posted on 12/24/2017 4:09:28 PM PST by Skooz

In what has become an annual, Christmas Eve tradition of sorts, I wonder if anyone else out there is spending your Christmas Eve solo.

I suppose we're never really alone if we have FR and the wonderful people who make up the membership here.

Merry Christmas, everyone.

“I just watched A Christmas Carol from 1951 with Alastair Sim.”

The best version, imho.

Orbiter & skooz, alone, too, but not alone. FReepers to keep company, and soon appears Emmanuel (”God with us”). A blessed and peaceful Christmas to you.

George C Scott version was more accurate but the 1951 version was more compelling.

Merry Christmas to you sir. Sometimes your alone even when you are surrounded by ppl. I type this sitting outside looking at the stars. With a household of family inside.

Hey Skooz ...

I've been alone most of the day, have one of my two sons here now. Waiting for the second to show up once he's done working today. Made a nice crock pot meal for us to share tonight, tomorrow we have ham, cheesy potato's and some other goodies for dinner. They'll spend the day at their mom's. I'll be alone most of the day.

Second year post divorce, still getting used to it, it's better than last year when I was a complete wreck.

All the best to you, thanks for posting the thread.

Happy Christmas, FRiend.

Have spent more than a few alone, and some were quite pleasant, actually.
I found/find that there's more depth and poignancy to all sorts of Christmas music when it's just me and the headphones.
And in just a couple days it'll all be behind you and perhaps next year will be different . . .

ps: if you're not already acquainted, go to youtube and give Trans-Siberian Orchestra an audition.

Yeah, sadly. Physically alone but still connected to my FRiends. God Bless you all.

I was a biker back in the middle 60's. Wrecked the bike and me. That ended my affection :)
