Hey @fionasfavourites :) Thank you so much for that! and actually, that was our Christmas :)
Seriously though, our landlord and the tenant down below (also from Canada), are both on their own, so I think I'll make a nice feast for us all that we can enjoy on the patio here :) I've spent a couple of Christmases on my own in the past, and it can be dreadfully depressing, so I've always made sure to drag any single ones over to my place now when I'm able :)
Hope you and yours are well!
@lynncoyle1 - I thought as much!
We also do waifs and strays (as I call it) because when I was single and much younger and not in my home town, I was always welcomed into people's homes at Christmas. The least I can do is to pay it forward - a tradition Tom had to accept as part of the package!
Yes, Christmas can be an awful time for folk on their own, and a few folk I know have had really bad years and not looking forward to the festive season. That said, it's been a tough one for us, so I'm looking at the end of the year as bringing a new beginning. So....
Thanks for your wishes and enjoy - whatever it is you do!
waifs and strays ... love it! I figured you'd do the same too :)
I'm hoping that the new year brings better times for you and yours @fionasfavourites! Merry Christmas :)
