I am spending Christmas alone and i will cheer myself up by thinking of all the family squabbles i am missing. I live in Canada so the weather is often nasty on Christmas. Also, i take the bus and service is reduced on that day. It is also prime flu season and a couple years when i made plans with people they just ended up cancelled due to sickness. All reasons to stay home and enjoy my cozy home and my sweet puppy. I'm looking forward to it!
