Virtual online gathering for christmas day here....

[EveHarrington]

Can I drop in? I’ll be volunteering in the morning/early afternoon.

I also wish to drop by on Christmas Day. If anyone wants to decorate sugar cookies with me, I will bring the cut outs, homemade icing and sprinkles.

 

[Fadeaway]

I am not one for celebrating, but I can keep people company. I can't fully commit because it is dependent on my mental state but I will try. Anyways, I support this.

 

[Anrish]

Since we celebrate the 24th in Germany ...and I'll return home and be alone at the 25th, I'll show up.

 

[Chiqui]

Oh @Rain , thank you!! This is a great idea. I will come around and hide between my tribe from all this ugly celebration:woot::happy:

 

[Deleted member 12723]

Thanks all of you I think it will be good for us. It will be fun and interesting I think with all of there together.

I am somewhat concerned, as this date is a new trauma anniversary for me, that I will ruin the party. Thoughts anyone?

I do not think so, because the purpose of the gathering is for all of us to just support each other through a very difficult day. If you cannot do it I understand but you also have the option of peeking in and read the replies and follow along without participating if you feel more safe about doing that. I would love for you to feel better like I would for fade too. It is going to be better than isolating I think if that is what youa are going to be doing.:hug::hug::hug:

 

[Deleted member 41765]

Oh, I will definitely be isolating, and you are right. Thank you again :hug:.

It is a trauma anniversary for me, but by making it into something I liked, with new traditions, it turned back into a celebration. Perhaps this could be a start of changing this day for you @ShikibuZ. I'm not trying to make it less than it is, anniversaries are hard, but it could be the first step.

 

[DharmaGirl]

I'd like to come to be with a bunch of my wise, fun friends. I love you guys.

@Fadeaway there will be no christmas ornaments on trees etc at this gathering and I think you are very brave for coming here. Good for you. I will support you both if you are having a rough time and I am sure the others will too as it is going to be better to be together than being alone by ourselves.:hug:
