My kids will be at their dads and my family live a long way from me. I intend to spend Christmas day alone - do I relish or repel this idea???
Anyone else alone this Christmas?

Me - although it was a decision made out of choice rather than 'no where to go'. I am actually looking forward to me and Ninja cat curling up on the sofa, relaxing and generally eating what we want as oppossed to what everyone thinks you should
Edited.. as there seems to be a change of plan lol and it appears I am offski afterall. Ib "I'm not bothered if people in general like me or not, those that matter to me like me and that's all that counts." Edited 20 Dec 11, 2:54 PM by gastro_masochist | |

This year I have Mum, housemate & her kids. Last year was very different and, although I was dreading it, it worked out fine: http://www.informedconsent.co.uk/posts/293209/ Not huffy or stuffy, nor tiny or tall,
But fluffy, just fluffy, with no brains at all. | |

I've had the ususal christmas row, thought i had my sister on board as we both started in august with the we aren't going to my auntie's. My sister caved in with my mothers emmotional pressure and is now going . My mother tried to do the guilt trip on me saying it was the last christmas she'd spend with her family until i snapped and said well you wont be with your husband, eldest daughter and your youngest daughter doesn't really want to be there. To which she then said well your father's got his wish. Until i pointed out the only reason we tolerated it was to keep her happy and if she wanted to know who had spoiled christmas she needed to go to the bathroom and look in the mirror. So i will be on my own eating smoked salmon, lobster and i may buy a christmas pudding after doing some volunteer work. The pressure of a joyful time and peace on earth is a croc of shite. i'm missing not having the joy of working a double shift in the hospital's at least i had that to hide behind before | |

My ex used to love becoming a hermit at Christmas, and getting stuck into some absolutely huge book(s), and ordering lots of take-aways. For me it is always spent with family (or family and close friends). There's a somebody I'm longing to see, I hope that he turns out to be, someone to watch over me | |

Living half a world away from my family means Christmas alone and growing up I use to wish I could have a Christmas alone...now I wish I could be with my family... we are never happy are we LOL Now all I want for Christmas is to have this laryngitis gone and my voice back!
