Christmas Loungeroom

Eating is a good thing @TAB I need to force myself to get dinner tonight - really don't feel like it much at all. Hope you get some things done today - I often forget you are 3 hours behind us in the east - plenty of time to get things orgnaised for yourself if you can summon up the energy.

Well I wasnt planning on doing anything today @Zoe7 but guess I could, just seems like punishment tho. perhaps an after dark dash to supermarket thats open til 11 I did do mashed potato and peas but just played with it. Mostly untouched. It needed a side serve of pie lol else hmm bland...

Mashed potatoes and peas is not much to have @TAB - maybe treat yourself to something nice for dinner.

I don't have much food in the house either but mainly because I haven't been shopping for a while - just pick up things for a few days and then have to go out again @TAB - it used to be that I couldn't plan for meals so didn't have a shopping list - now I get things when I need them. Will probably do a small shop on Sunday - mostly vegetables - I eat a lot of those and salads.

@Hope4me
Thanks for tagging me, although I am a bit late to the party!

First off, merry Christmas to all the lovely people here!

As always, I am going to be by myself this Christmas, as I have been over the past few years. As an immigrant in Australia, I have no family or friends here. I do have a cousin and some acquaintances, but they all have families and events planned for themselves so that doesn't really count.

I will be spending my day like any other weekend/holiday - working out at the gym, honing my professional skills (My current job ends on 29th January, and I need to find a new job after that), and basically relaxing for the rest of the time with music and video games.

I know, this may appear kinda boring for people reading this, but to me Christmas is just like any other weekend or public holiday when I don't have to go to work.

hello @aficionado

Not boring at all @aficionado - we all deal with the holiday period in our own way. You sound like you have good plans to get through the day and for some treating it as just like any other day is preferable. There will be plenty of people on here throughout the day if you feel like forum company. I will be checking in throughout the day myself so feel free tom tag me if you like.
