Ok, so maybe I work too much.... I volunteered to work on Christmas day, my family is 6 hours away in any given direction and a day off in the middle of the week simply isn't going to help me. I would rather a local person spend time with their family. Unfortunately... I can't work all day!
What have you done on Christmas Eve/ Christmas Evening when you were alone?
I saw a forum with a similar question and only one answer online stating "many ppl kill themselves" I'm hopig for some happier solutions!
I raid the fridge, chase the cats with the laser pointer, put on my favorite socks and slide across the floor, draw silly pictures on my mirrors with soap, walk around with no pants on, take time to look at all my plants, examine what I no longer want from in my closet, contact special people, study, eat more, roll around on the bed and refuse to make it... did I mention eat?

Just got two baby kittens, thanks for the idea.
I know what you mean Ruthie. We have to think outside the box to get through the tough times.

I will be working so those with children can be home with them when they open their presents. But would like for this to change something if I could find that special someone.
