Only left the house to help my neighbor look for her escaped cat. It turned out to be in their basement. The cat gets it.
After many years of shitty Christmases … I refuse to leave the house on Christmas Day or any time from Christmas to New Years.
Y’all crazy and insane out there and I don’t want to meet, talk or see any of you in person during this time of year.
I’ve prepared my home base and I can live here with enough food for a month and enough entertainment for two lifetimes.
Ooh I like your style. I will hunt you down and I will inflict my friendship upon you.
Sadly I have to venture forth tomorrow or the day after for sustenance. Other than that I’m with you, people are nuts this time of year and are best avoided.
What entertainment are you enjoying? I started watching “For All Mankind” this week. So I’d like to get all caught up on that.

I think it’s true because I’m in a really wealthy suburban area right now and there’ve been so many police sirens at night lately. Like WTF is going on? drunk drivers, car accidents, domestic violence, drug overdoses?
I think people do go nuts the week between Christmas and New Year’s because all the white collar people are off work a whole week and it’s party time for them
Went to a del taco today for breakfast. Tipped the guy $20 for working today. Went to a bar this evening for a beer and also tipped the bartender $20.
The real Santa
Um, yesterday was Christmas day mate, get with it
Um, I posted that 6 hours ago which was yesterday in my time zone too mate, Get with it.

haven’t left the house all day 💅
Saaaame. I just want someone to poke their periscope out there and tell me what’s going on please.
Did not leave the house. Did not want to give bosses that forced close to minimum wage employees incentive to continue to do so. I believe minimum wage should at least double on holidays.
wow, were do you live? here in Mexico they pay triple on holidays, so it’s not so weird for people wanting to work holidays
I took the dogs for a walk. Gas stations and 24/7 pubs were open.
I did not leave the house, but I was very grateful that there was a sushi restaurant open for delivery because my SO ate all the sushi leftover from last night which I had been looking forward to sharing. Gave a big tip, of course.
Christmas day was yesterday for me.
I only left home for church. After that, it was back home to have lunch with family, then hosting Christmas dinner for a bunch of people.
Does going into my garage workshop count? If not, then no. I didn’t have anywhere to be and it was really cold out.
Life is going as normal as if there’s no such thing as Christmas. In fact, the schools are open too, some folks are even taking their midterm exams.
Wow, which country are you in?
If it wasn’t obvious already from some of my previous comments, I’m from Morocco.
okay. I didn’t realize we were supposed to be memorizing everybody’s usernames and every detail of demographic information they’ve ever mentioned.
I’m experiencing déjà vu. The same comment gets posted twice. I don’t know if this is a glitch in lemmy.world’s servers (or the servers of a different instance) or if it’s just a client problem.
It’s most likely a glitch on my end. Most everything I submit to Lemmy has been getting rejected with an error message “cannot connect to Lemmy” So I write the comment again and then later both comments appear.
But I just switched from Sync to Voyager so hopefully I will have a smoother experience with no more glitches.
This explains everything.
I’m just telling you that I’ve said that information elsewhere, incase there’s someone who looks through my old posts and comments.

Christmas is inside time. It’s -12c outside and snowing.
I stayed at home and cooked a turkey. I know the grocery store was open till 2pm (normally closes at 10pm) because sibling worked today. I know wawa was closed, they had signs.
Stayed home most of the day except to go to my daughter’s house for supper, about a 1/4 mile away.
The closest business that would have been open today out here would have been the gas station about 16 miles (25km) away.
We took the dogs to run around at a park before the festivities. We were definitely the only people there.
