I've spent my Christmases alone since 1993. I'll cook my Christmas pasta dish tomorrow and wash it down with a bottle of red.

Tonight I'll entertain our troops at the FReeper Canteen.

My husband, myself and little dog are together. Our son and his family were in from out of state for Christmas this past weekend through Tuesday, so our Christmas is a little fragmented this year. We just opened each others gifts and nothing fits! We are grateful for each other.

I am a throwback of the Donna Reed show and anything other than a perfect Christmas has never worked, yet trying to make it work for me has never worked. So this year I am doing everything other than what Donna Reed would do, and it is working.

For those alone, bless you and understand that the images of Christmas, family, snow, jingle bells, huge table with dozens gathered around, a beautiful tree singing are just images, that so many try to emulate and rarely achieve.
