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’ve been essentially ‘alone’ for most of my adult life.
I’m used to it. I have enough friendly contact to maintain.

Agreed, the Sim version is the best. Just finished the version with George C. Scott which is also very good.
And I love the musical version with Albert Finney.

Not alone, but Merry Christmas.

Just remember:

If you are alone and unhappy about it, know there are plenty of people who wish they were in your shoes.

If you are with others and are unhappy about it, know there are plenty of people who wish they were in your shoes.

Dont always fall for the grass is greener faux mindset.

If you have the ability, watch the episode of The Cleveland Show where they do a 1/2 hour parody of Die Hard. It will make you laugh.

Not alone here in Colorado, but it’s a quiet evening in front of the fireplace.

Hubby was born and raised in northern Louisiana.

Merry Christmas!

Old City Bar is one of my all time absolute favorite Christmas songs.
In spite of what the title might conjure up, it's about the magic than can happen during the Christmas season.
Makes my monitor blurry every single time . . .

I agree we should always keep a thread going during holidays where people feel more alone than on normal days.

Not fair, I know, but being alone sounds kind of refreshing to me. My life has a different kind of difficulty. I am a bit of a servant to my kids and mom with Alzheimer’s and I don’t have much “me time.” Cooking birthday dinner for mom right now. I can pop in here during the evening and I hope others can too. We don’t celebrate Christmas but we’re giving mom a good time.

Merry Christmas Eve to all here. Hugs all around.

It’s quiet here , just me and the best pupster.... Zevi.... in the world. I’m enjoying the Quiet. Very grateful for my little house and yard. Grateful for FREEPR friends. I’m so grateful for Trump.

If you’re content...anywhere is bliss. If you’re not content, a million dollar condo on the beach would be miserable.

I had 3 good friends move out of state this year..but tomorrow
my neighbor and I are going to hit Golden Corral when it opens!

And tomorrow Zevi has a date with her doggie boyfriend, Hitch.

May all you Freepers have peace and contentment in your hearts on this Holy night.

If you have DISH turn to channel 198. It is a Yule log with a lot going on. Hilarious.


Will check it out at the commercial. Sadly every dog show is running on nbcsn and birthday girl (85!) wants to sit and watch every dog. Even more sadly, she makes the rest of us Look at this dog! for every dog.
