I must be a crabby old SOB

Me and the wife will be home alone on Christmas. Good or bad I wish we had some where to go. My brother and sister live too far away and have in-law plans. My Mom had to move half way acroos the state and we can get everyone there for Christmas until January. Uncles and Aunts are not seen now that my Dad passed away. I guess that is just the way it is. One of these year I am going to take the wife on vacation for Christmas and New Year and be done with it all.
