The "Lonely blue spouseless Xmas..." thread

[Rosalinda 0]

Hello everyone!!! I can't believe how thankful I am for that grainy reception I get from the web cam. I can say it's like a breath everytime I see him.

We, "Thank You Jesus" have always had the webcam it is the next best thing to having him beside me.

We have not spent any of the Holidays together the last time I was next to my husband was when I went for vacation from work and came back married I love it when I say that.... that was for 2weeks in 2006

I have looked foward to the time when we are together again so many times and have been disappointed... so for now I am semi-content with the way things are and try not to think ahead......

I pray WE are not forgotten in 2009.

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO EVERYONE & MAY WE ALL BE BLESSED AND REUNITED WITH OUR HUSBANDS/WIVES SOON!!

When we started this process, I was telling all of my family that he should be here for christmas.. not so much.

Not that he celebrates Christmas..but I do and I want my husband for christmas waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

ok, Im done. He'll be here soon and we will have the rest of our lives to celebrate holidays :trying to stay positive this week:

I thought of something, for all of us alone at Christmas, my husband and myself, the past 2 New Years have celebrated our New Years Eve via the web camera, he is 7 hours ahead of me so, I made sure I was at hoome at his midnight, and he made sure he was awake when 12 came here in the USA, so maybe for Christmas all of us, especially the ones with kids can use web cameras. Having a dad see his kids open their gifts Christmas morning would be great, he or she may not be there physically, but can have some Christmas joy seeing their kids open their gifts and seeing them on Christmas day.

Its a thought to ponder on.

Merry Christmas to all of us.

We have 7 hours also.

Thats a sweet idea really.

Merry Christmas

Thanks , it truly helps me when I chat with my husband via web camera, not the same as sitting next to him, but comes in 2nd place.

Happy Holidays!!

Ya, we would die w/o the cam! lol

We did try the "live" show once and my husband watched my son and i play games... he loved it. lol

maybe if my husband isnt working too late on christmas we can save one gift for him(my son) to open on cam.

That would be precious!!!!!!! Hear is another thought , maybe appoint a time when you both can do the web camera and have a "mini Christmas"

or do it Christmas Eve.

I already spent Christmas without my husband for 2 years. this year will be different. hes coming to visit. is his first year as eastern orthodox, so he said hell spend it here. last year he spent it home at his parents, and came here for New Years. for us, those who r the ones to immigrate, Christmas and holidays in general will always be a difficult time. last year i missed my husband, next year ill probably be with him and miss my family...so, even if he'll leave alone after it, and Ill still be here waiting, this year Christmas is somehow a bless for me. Ill have him and my family. having yr 2 families on 2 different continents isnt easy, and we all knew what we r getting through from the beginning. at least this year is easy. there is no other way to be together but him coming. as i see it, for the rest of our lives will be difficult. christmas is only one, and well always have to decide we visit his family or mine.

merry christmas to everyone, and long live the skype. is how we spent last christmas. with laptops and webcams on the whole time, i saw his family, he saw mine, i had a place at their table, he had a place at mine, they had a gift for me there, we had a gift for him here, sometimes we listened their music, sometimes they listened ours, and so on...we just couldnt taste eachother's food and drinks (and me and my husband couldnt taste eachother, but pretended to kiss under mistletoe)

Its going to be a wonderful Christmas for you this year.

I loved you sharing your posting of Christmas pasts, with gifts and missle toe, it was lovely.

Merry Christmas

I'm glad to know there is a thread for this! Makes me feel a little better.

This is our second Christmas since getting married, and it's the second Christmas we spend apart. Last year my husband was there by Skype as my immediate family sat around the tree opening gifts. This year, he'll be there by Skype as I deliver our baby (GOD, please let it be tonight, tomorrow, soon) and then celebrate the baby's first Christmas.

I think I've cried so much over it, I'm ready to just accept and deal. But it's good to know there are others out there who know what it feels like.

Even if that's a sad and depressing thought....

ok count me in

[DanielParul 50]

We told each other that 2006 Christmas will be the last one we spend away from each other and then said the same for Christmas 2007. Now we are praying that this be the last Christmas we spend away form each other specially coz next year it will be our baby's first one too.. Its specially hard this time coz I am the one here at home alone and pregnant too while he's in Iraq. I sent him a small xmas tree and decorations with gift, card and loads of candy so my honey can have a decent Christmas too, turns out he will be working all Christmas week. Just the efforts he puts in to call me and keep in touch with me and his gifts (flowers, candies with little notes) keep me going. I Love him and miss him so much

[Ellsinlove 2]

Well, I'm not married yet but I'm still wishing my SO was here for Christmas! Here's a little something for everyone missing their honeys during this holiday season....

I am right along with u.. I will be spending Christmas without my husband and my other two daughters well this time next year it will be MUCH BETTER!!!! this can't last 4 ever..Bless Up

[Dr. A ♥ O 203]

This will be year number two without Husband this Christmas. But hopefully by this time next year we'll be together.

I was going to post the Mariah Carrey video in my siggy too but the embed didn't work for me either.

All I want for Christmas is him too!

[mommymeow 0]

You know, i wasn't looking forward to Christmas without my husband either and i miss him so much i feel like my heart is being split in two but i have my 3 year old and so i will find the joy in watching her open her presents and when she wishes her father a Merry Christmas on the phone i will be happy because this will be the last Christmas withouth him. I will never take my husband for granted. Next Christmas i will get up early and make my daughter and my husband a huge breakfast and i won't mind being tired cause it will be well worth it to know that he is here and my daughter has her father.

This almost made me cry since I have a 2 yrs old daughter that can't celebrate Christmas with her dad as well. I just wish that we were there already to enjoy the time as a family.

I would never enjoy Christmas this time as my husbie is not with me. Hearing christmas carols everytime brings tears to my eyes. Feeling so lonely without him.
