Are you missing your family on New Year’s? Here are some ideas to still have fun and ring in the New Year with a smile.
- Put together a New Year’s Eve party for others. Gather your closest friends who are in the same boat and enjoy the celebration together.
- Call an old friend or your family. Spend some time talking on the phone, watching New Year's Eve specials together, and reminisce on the year gone by and discuss what's ahead.
- Cook a great dinner. Just because you're alone doesn't mean you have to dine on bad food. By cooking a swanky meal, you can enjoy the holiday and put a little spectacular into the everyday. Consider combining this cooking experience with calling an old friend/family via Skype.
- Indulge in your favorite hobbies or interests. If you're a reader, curl up with a novel. If you're a film buff, have an all-night marathon of your favorites. The possibilities are endless - just enjoy yourself.
