drinking with my parents and their friends
maybe i stay home.

Oh, Christmas Parties can be fun or disasterous.
Some of the work parties we had were way out there.
But then, we were truck mechanics partying with truck drivers and office staff.

No plans , everyday I live like a zombie .

As long as you are living like you want.
Personally, I don't eat people or smell like decay.

Tom .. I do have a question and please feel free not to respond .. as it is personal .. for me .. Christmas has always been about family . Do you not see your children at Xmas .. I know they are adults with their own lives but I am sure they would not be happy knowing you were alone .

I don't see them anytime. I have 15 grandkids and one on the way and I'm not able to make the trip anymore so I don't get to see them.
I have grandkids that I have never held, never met.
Its just the way things go, I guess.
I'm on fixed income. So flying there, renting a motel and a car then driving around the state is not going to happen.
On Thanxgiving I got 1 phone call from my daughter and it was hi/bye kinda thing. No, I am truly alone.

distance and finances make it extremely hard tom ... For many ... i imagine it is just as difficult for your family . I will whisper in santas ear and see if he can send you what you long for xox

So, when can I expect you?
Will you need a ride from the airport?

That is really heartbreaking, I hope your kids find it important at some point to make the trips to you.

I have 5 Grandkids and I am blessed that I can get to go to them but when I can't, my sons and daughter in laws bring them to me. I just spent 4 full days with them over the Thanksgiving holiday. all here at my house in Jersey. Wonderful time for me.

My Christmas's are special because of them. I love being " Santa Claus"

I truly hope you get to experience that, Tom.. I really do.

Thanx for the well-wishes.
At first it was heart-breaking.
I spent many nights wallowing in depression over something I couldn't control.
I have since learned to accept life as it presents itself to me.
I truly believe my mortality (health) scares them and keeps them at bay. I know my family loves me and I know that they know I love them. Perhaps, if I were to find the right woman to help with the driving I might eventually be able to go do a visit. If Not, well, thats how life is.

I don't have set plans right now. I'm waiting to hear about a seasonal job in Colorado. I'm hoping to be there for Christmas. If not, I want to go visit some place where it's snowing. I'd really like a white Christmas this year.

What a wonderful quest, In Colorado you will get your white Christmas.
If you do get your white Christmas, go sled riding at night, its fantastic.
One requirement is making snow angels.
You lay down on your back and move your arms and legs outward in a sweeping pattern.
Believe it or not, I met a 30 year old man that had never made a snow angel and after he did, he was like a little kid and couldn't stop smiling.

Oh I love making snow angels, I used to do it all the time when I lived up in Michigan. The place I will be working at...fingers crossed...gives free passes for skiing and the fitness center, and pretty much any other activity that they offer guests.

Either way, I will seek out my winter adventure and along with making snow angels, maybe even build a snow man :}

Well that depends Tom, are you talking about creating an anatomically correct snowman or snowwoman? bigsmile

Or are you referring to women's clothing being more interesting? biggrin winking
