Is Anyone Else Alone on Christmas Eve?
From Skooz's Comfy Home | 12/24/2019 | Skooz

Posted on 12/24/2019 3:19:39 PM PST by Skooz

So, this has become an annual thread. Each year I hope to find that special someone and each year, around this time, I realize that I may have to wait another year.

But, I can't complain. Life is good. I made a sweet potato pie from scratch and will share it with the family tomorrow at our Christmas dinner. I'm 59 years-old and have been blessed to have spent every Christmas with my parents? How many people can say that?

But, tonight it's just me, George Bailey on Bluray, some beautiful sacred Christmas music on SiriusXM Holiday Pops and a nice bottle of red wine.

How about you? Anyone else solo this Christmas Eve?

Thank you Bone, they are the best. One thing I realized since he’s been gone now a few months, is how they ( my pups) sorta of grounded me and calmed me as a person. I’ve noticed lately that my temper, which I thought had totally subsided over the last few decades seems to be back with a vengeance. I’m not happy about that, and I hope I will be able to see my way to getting another furry friend.

Niteowl77 has to work (health care provider), so I am alone again. I've lost count of the Christmas Eves when I have been the only human in the house. My childhood was filled with great Christmas Eves surrounded by relatives, but we Niteowls have been whittled down to a very few.

Luckily, I do have a weird but nice cat to keep me company tonight.

Mr. niteowl77

There is a special Yule log on TV featuring dogs, cats, bunnies and a pig for adoption, plus great carols playing.

And a quiet evening for remembering what this Eve is all about.

Shot a few photos down by the lake, now I am kicked back editing them. I have almost always been on the road on Christmas day for over forty years.

Not tomorrow!

Here ya go...

There’s a massive libtard debate if Die hard is a Christmas movie. I voted yes.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas to all! Please keep in mind the soldiers on firewatch or in the towers keeping an eye out and their families.

Prayers for those who don’t have Free Republic!
