Christmas Eve in England....I'd like to wish everyone on Cute the happiest Christmas ever. It's my 39th Christmas and for the first time in my life I will be totally alone on the day. It's good to know there's a community like Cute out there though! I'd like to wish my mom Marthie a merry Christmas in South Africa - ek is baie lief vir ma!! xxx

I wish you a Merry Christmas and wish I could spend a few minutes with you as it is hard to be alone especially on Christmas.

This is the first Christmas that my husband and all his pals will spend the morning playing tennis. I think its strange to be sitting at home Christmas morning all alone. But I am happy all his friends could play...I guess thats what happens when your children all grow up. You are never alone.... when you have Cute on your side

Lizell, Merry Christmas - enjoy the day - as if there were a room full of people - do for yourself - like you would for them - call friends and family and enjoy the conversation on the phone - then come and share with the rest of us on CUTE. Merry Christmas dear.

Merry Christmas, Lizell! Greetings from Macon, Georgia (USA)! You are never REALLY alone, and, sometimes it is truly nice to relax, unwind, and enjoy the solitude, because most of us have so many hectic days in our lives! Relish your "down" time on Christmas day to reflect, thinking of all your many blessings, and thoughts of all those to come in the New Year! Hugs to you!

Hi Lizell and Happy Christmas. I too am having a first for Christmas with just me and my husband as our daughters are in different parts of the country with their husbands families. I keep getting phone calls 'Mum how do I cook ----' I know one of them is in charge of the cooking. Hope you have a good day

Never feel alone as a cutie ;o)
Do you have a good book or a nice film to relax? Good food and maybe a pot of mulled wine?
I always love to watch "Little Lord" with Ricky Schroeder and Alec Guiness on christmas or "3nuts for cinderella" (this wonderful czech movie).
Greetings and still a merry xmas-night
