How does one deal with the holidays?   Does one send cards out?   I am not up to wishing any one a Merry Christmas.   Not feeling it this year.  I don't want to put a tree up just for me.  No one is coming in.  Will it be more depressing with out a tree.  Not looking forward to not getting invited to the Christmas parties.  I am sure all of the couples will go.   It just feels really weird and I am not sure what to do.  Wha are you all doing?
