Thanks so much for watching and for all your support! It means so much to me, my friend!

You’re absolutely right. As always. When I divorced my daughter was 3.5 y.o. It was just the two of us because my family lived far away from us, so I didn’t see a reason to have holiday parties just for us both. Then I thought: why not? It’s not JUST the two of us; it’s THE TWO OF US AND WE’RE ENOUGH. From then on we would have Christmas, New Year, Easter, the whole shebang, including home decor and dressing for the occasion. 30 years have passed and she was telling my husband last Saturday when she was over how special those days were, and how much fun we had. It’s worth it.
Great ideas. I’m alone now and started just going to a movie Christmas Day.
I get so caught up in my own usual Christmas agenda that it literally never dawned on me that families of military members may be alone on the Holidays! I've always thought of the elderly and widows, but never military families 🤯 Thank you so much for sharing this with us and speaking from the heart! I think I know someone I can make time for now this Christmas season!! 🎄 Love your video!! 💜 🤗 💜
And singles...and when I was in the military we go to dining hall together.
Nikki, this video couldn’t come at a better time. This is my situation this year, and watching you saying so many positive things and your upbeat attitude has completely changed my perspective. Thank you thank you thank you!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
I agree 100%! I had been feeling very sad about it but that vid gave me a brand new outlook too!
I also agree thank you so much! I always feel like I’m the only one celebrating alone and love that you made it something to embrace rather than feel sad about.
This is such a valuable subject matter - having a wonderful holiday celebration alone instead of just coping ! Thank you so very much Nikki !! I have been estranged from all of my family for over a decade now ( 13 Christmases to be exact ) & although I am not alone ( I am blessed with a wonderful , loving Husband ) , after so many years celebrating with a large immediate & extended family it has been a process to come up with meaningful ways to celebrate with just the 2 of us . 💕💕💕
@Phyllis Sam Kooistra - Your story is exactly like my husband and me. I have a small family brother and niece that spend time with
others than inviting my husband and me that hurts deeply, This is the first year over 13-15 years we have been invited to a home for Christmas Breakfast. I cry a lot every year from hurt being alone.
Thank God for our new church friends who cared enough to invite
people to their home for Breakfast this year. God Bless💙
Such wonderful tips to enjoy the holidays alone or not. Love your story of sharing your family Christmas’ with a soldier🌟
Thank you so much for creating this video. I cannot tell you how much I needed to hear this today. Two years ago I lost both of my parents, one to Alzheimer’s disease and the other to a stroke three months later. As this was during the holidays, this is a particularly difficult time and I am adjusting to spending the holidays alone. God bless you Nikki! Watching your video has brought me to tears, not of sadness but of gratitude.
This was exactly what I needed! I love your channel!!! Thank you for putting this together, Nikki!!!
Go to the movies on Christmas Day.. Go to a Chinese Restaurant for Christmas Dinner. Go to a Retirement Home and take a gift.
Thank you Nikki for your tips and inspiring words! My condolences to others here who have lost loved ones and will be alone for the holidays - I understand because I lost my husband and mother, I have no children and my friends are usually busy with their families, so I am adjusting and learning how to enjoy the holidays by myself now. It’s comforting to read the comments here and know that many of us face this every year. Now, instead of feeling sad for myself, I embrace it by planning something nice for myself and being grateful for all the good things in my life. For Thanksgiving, I got myself a Thanksgiving meal and enjoyed it while watching Fall Hallmark movies. I will do the same for Christmas Day. My husband and I had a tradition every New Year’s Eve of having champagne and appetizers while watching the festivities on TV - since he passed away, I have continued this same tradition every year myself and know he is with me in spirit. Also, I have learned that celebrations don’t have to be on the actual holiday - I plan a few things with friends around the holidays and that helps, too. Planning and doing something special for yourself will make you feel better. I also treat myself to a special Christmas gift every year. Happy Holidays to you all!
Thank you, Nikki! Yet another stellar and very informative video!
I was just thinking yesterday how much fun we had over Thanksgiving trading texts and pictures with extended family. My niece and family at beach & others at home. It’s one thing we can all take from lockdowns being apart doesn’t mean being alone.
Going through some transitions this year, and this video was really needed!
❤️❤️
Although I am fortunate to still have my mother with me, I know that someday I will be trying to figure out what to do at holidays since I am a lifelong singleton with no kids. I do have a very close friend that I could spend the time with, and could travel to my only siblings’ (out of state) to visit him. However, I’ve always wanted to spend a holiday season in Austria or Germany at the Christmas Markets-those folks really know how to celebrate! That’s one option to consider-still alone but very festive and unusual. You definitely get us thinking and planning with these videos!
Thank you Nikki
I really needed this this year. My mom died a few weeks ago and my daughter moved away yesterday so I was feeling pretty down about the holidays. Now I have some better uplifting ideas❤️
Thank you for this video! I have never seen anything about this. This will be my 1st Christmas alone-ever.
Just like most of the comments below, great timing Nikki. With mom's passing 2 weeks ago, I have no idea what Christmas will look like. Everyone has their spouses or little family units, so I may have to get creative myself. And I appreciate the variety of organizing tips as well as life/home/planning in general tips. No need to be kept in a box. ;-) Catch you tomorrow Friendgirl.
Great advice 😊
Thank you for this. I was in the military a million years ago and being away from family can be very depressing.
Love this! ❤️🎄
My favorite is here❤❤❤❤
Hi Nikki a very interesting video today there are so many people going to spend Christmas alone I wish you all the best for the coming holiday xx
Love the pure chaos statement, that was Thanksgiving in my house this year…Lenora from Augusta
We are selling our home and it has to be ready for people to see. We have it down to the bare minimum and I've been stressed thinking about all my decorations and festivities. Thank you for helping me put everything in perspective. I will pick out a few favorites and enjoy!
Bless you Nikki, this is such a lovely video.
Thank you for this video.
I needed to hear this.
God bless you.👍
Nikki this is so lovely. Great great tips 👍🏾, I will do this for myself another time. Appreciate you so much and inspire by you since day one.
Very thoughtful message Nikki ❤
Love your Videos since i‘ve been 19 :), its so nice That you are SO active.
Thank you so much for all of your wisdom! Appreciated!
I love these ideas! I did not know you can host a service member what a great idea. 🙏❤️
I hope you show us your Christmas decorating ideas this year, didn't get to see your fall decorated home..🙁
Wonderful tips Nikki! May you have a wonderful Christmas with your loved ones! You are a wonderful inspiration!
Perfect for those of us that are single empty-nesters.
Love this , you are always spot on!
Love your beautiful perspective, done in true Nikki form!!!❤️❤️❤️
I love this holiday series! Great job!
great idea for a video and lots of tips to stay positive, showing you can actually enjoy the occasion even when alone! I hope when you lived in England you had Mince Pies and other traditional Christmas food we have here :) i would like to try egg nog some day!
Great video and I subscribed.
I’m a military spouse too! Thanks for addressing this topic and for the truly helpful ideas and suggestions.
This is what I do since I'm pretty much alone on the holidays
I would add to decorate your home and cook a nice holiday dinner for yourself even if it’s just you. The decorations make a big difference. It really feels like you are missing out so much more if you don’t decorate
Wow, I've never been first to reply! Thanks Nikki! I worked for the Air Force most of my Civil Service career and always enjoyed inviting someone home! I retired from CS as the person that asked all of the questions for Backgrounds!
Very helpful. Just what I need since I am alone.
Great video, Nikki.❤ In my opinion your number one tip is to PLAN. I plan a special project, quilting or Cross-stitch, enjoy my Christmas tree lights and music, a couple chats with long-distance friends, A movie or series along with Knitting. A very fulfilling day once I put a positive and planning twist on it. Thanks for all your tips. I’m sure this is a timely video for many of us🎉
🥰
I love your motivation and attitude towards life and everything in it. I'm spending the holidays by myself. No one wants to spend the holidays with me so I'm just gonna cook for myself and watch movies and football. I don't have anyone to really do anything with. No friends, no family.
That's exactly this. Great video. I moved to Brazil and my family was back in Toronto, Canada...first CHristmnas here, I had no family but I had made some friends who didnt have family in the State I was in, Rio de Janeiro, either. We got together to celebrate it and it was awesome...each of us cooked some dish and we had plenty of food, booze and, most importantly, we had tons of laugh and spent a great time together. It was the first time I had spent Xmas without my parents, grandparents and siblings. It was tough, but I had a great time with my new friends. Nowadays we always make sure to spend New year's eve together.
Speaking of movies, I just loveeeee watching "Home Alone" during the xmas season...watching that movie always puts me in a good mood.
Thank you for the video ❤
Great video 👍🏼 thanks for all the great tips. Wishing you a beautiful CHRISTmas season. ❤
Love that you covered this topic. Thank you!
Great ideas Here Nikki - thank you so much. I look forward to the quiet time with a good book and watching lots of movies !!
