Merry Christmas, Friends
May your day be everything you’d hoped for, or something close to it. If you’re on your own today, I get that it can be lonely and frustrating
, irritating and crazy-making. But, many of us are in the same boat and I think it’s safe to say whoever you’re missing is likely missing you just as much. If possible, give them a call or send them an email, tweet, or message them on Facebook – if that’s your thing. Reach out and let them know they’re in your thoughts.
Go out for a walk today if the weather permits. Hell, even if the weather doesn’t! Just be safe and smart about it.
Make up a plate of comfort food and eat until you’ve had your fill.
Let this be the one day you indulge your appetites and make it a party. Yes
, you CAN have a party of one. Use this as a means of practicing for when we all reenter society at some unspecified date in the (hopefully) near future.
Be kind to yourself today. Be kind to others you may encounter. Mask up. Stay safe. And remember how sweet life will be when we’re able to join those we love most and celebrate together. Hold out for that day, BUT don’t forget to find simple joys now, too.
Merry Christmas from our home to yours!
