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.
ouch!! I know the feel of estranged adult children.
Lots of people hurting tonight....
Never seen it, but now I feel the need to!
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.
Just me and the parrot.
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.
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.
I knew a biker named upchuck. Related? Lol.
I am alone in body, not in the Holy Spirit
Sending you extra special Christmas wishes. When you’re a FReeper you’re never alone
Merry Christmas!
Bump!
Thank you Jim Robinson.
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 :)
Merry Christmas to all FReepers!
I hear you loud and clear Donna...
Trans Siberian orchestra GHOST OF CHRISTMAS airs in Christmas on AXSTV at 1300 MST. Also find it on YouTube. Nice story
Yes. Here with my wife of 22 years.
Merry Christmas!! I had a steak dinner, too. Will be joining family tomorrow weather permitting.
Feeling very much the CHRISTmas spirit. Joy to the World. Thank you for this lovely thread.
