1

Get outside

Most attractions are closed on Christmas Day, but that doesn’t mean that you have to say indoors and be bored. Use the day to get out in nature if the weather is agreeable; it’s one of the best times to stroll through a local park because not many people will be about.

2

Catch up

Use the day to be comfortable on the couch and catch up with some of the stuff you have missed in the busy work year. Watch some of the best movies, binge some of the best shows, read one of the best books!

3

Admin

Busy your mind and take the thoughts of being lonely on the 25th out of your head by getting on with the pesky like admin that you have been putting off. It provides a distraction and then also makes you feel good when you know you’ve crossed it off your list.

4

Volunteer

Get out of the house and spend time volunteering to give back to those in need. It lets you be around grateful people all day long, and gives you a wonderful sense of achievement whilst being able to better the lives of others.

5

Internet

You never have to be alone when you have the internet in your pocket! Spend a guilt free day browsing to your heart’s content, something that you wouldn’t be able to do if you were forced to make small talk with Aunt Debbie!

Famous Quotes

Silence at the proper season is wisdom, and better than any speech.

6

Run

Be proactive in shaking off those Christmas cobwebs by getting out of the house and going for a brisk winter run. The endorphins will make you feel really good and you will have some leeway to indulge in a few treats later on.

7

Restaurant

If you don’t have to cook for anyone, then don’t bother messing up your kitchen! Head out to a nice local restaurant and enjoy a delicious Christmas meal for one with no fear of washing up.

8

Photography

If you are into photography and want some cool shots to add to your Instagram, then head out and take advantage of the deserted streets!

9

Summer Drinks

Turn your home in to a beach bar by enjoying all of the classic summery drinks like Malibu and Sex On The Beach! Who says you have to do the traditional Christmas things!?

10

Carry on

If you want to forget about Christmas Day altogether, then there is nothing to stop you from carrying on with your day in a completely normal way! Take a work shift if that is an option, if not, do something to work from home!
