Working with my wife!
Go to work, then panick that all the shops are closed and all I brought to eat is dry crackers…
Working
Work at a drive thru Christmas light park.
Nope. At a plastics manufacturer
Same. I hope you have an easy shift
I will cook some Cornish game hens, asparagus with garlic, mashed potatoes with garlic, maybe bread rolls. Dessert will be eggnog and chocolate peppermint cookies.
Spending this year more or less alone. Parents live far away and unfortunately I don’t have anyone to watch my kitty (plus I’ve traveled a bunch recently). It’s been a very hard year for them and a tough fall for me, so it’s difficult not being there to share time together. At the same time, I’m trying not to become enveloped in sorrow and guilt and will be making lamb stew, Icelandic cookies and having some delicious spiced mead. Hope you all have a pleasant holiday o<|:)
It’s my first ever Christmas alone. Still making an 8 lb ham and a nice spread of food for dinner. Will be making sandwiches and bean soup with the leftover ham. Otherwise just wallowing in self pity and doom swiping on dating sites in hopes that I won’t be alone next year.
Xanax and wish it was 2020 again
You enjoyed 2020?
You didn’t? For once in my life I had a good excuse to stay at home and do nothing! On the rare occasion I did need to go out, the air was clean and the highways were empty.
I wish every year was like 2020.
My partner and I were laid off December 2019. In February 2020 my government started giving us both a lot of money every month. We were not working from 2020 until 2022, and made money anyway. We spent all of our time together, at home, going out as little as possible, doing everything we loved (we have all of the same hobbies and are homebodies).
Best years of our lives.
Yeah borrowing from the future is fun. Until the future arrives. :/
Whatcha mean!
It’s like living off credit cards. It’s fun until the limit runs out and now you have to pay it all back.
I don’t quite understand. I didn’t have to pay anything back, we just saved a ton of money and bought a bunch of index funds hahaha.
We all paid and are paying it back via inflation.
(At least that’s how it is in my country)
Well we got to see the nations lowest forms of life throw a largely ineffective temper tantrum. What’s not to enjoy?
Going to see the parents for Christmas dinner and Wallace and gromit, followed by going home, smoking a fat joint, and watching the greatest chris- uh, Life Day movie of all time, the Star Wars Holiday Special.
Psychedelic mushrooms. They’re legal here (Oakland, CA).
My wife and I pick a country each year and plan our Christmas Eve dinner to make of food from that country. This year we picked The Gambia so it is going to be domoda (peanut stew) and thiakry (millet couscous pudding).
I’ll be alone. I lost my mother in August, so i’m an orphan now (my dad died 5 years ago)
I’m not sad or in need of pitty though. I just need my alone time to think things over. Christmas is as good a time as any :)
We’re gonna be eating lots and lots of delicious food!
Today we’re not doing anything, and it will be glorious. Tomorrow we’re exchanging gifts (my wife, the dog*, and I) cooking up a ham with beans and asparagus, and watching Christmas movies.
*she didn’t get us anything, but we still love her
Working and then my cousin’s house later for some food. That’s about it.
More 12+ hour shifts to appease the blood gods my bosses worship known to us mortals as “the shareholders”
