20£®My husband Jeff and I moved into our new home in Scottsbluff last year just before Christmas£®I did not have the £¨41£©C or energy to carry out my traditional Christmas decorating and baking activities£®What was the point£¬anyway£¿It was going to be a £¨42£©A Christmas after all£®£¨43£©B£¬the neighborly nature of west Nebraska residents started to trickle £¨Â½ÐøÀ´ÁÙ£© in£®
There was a £¨44£©B on the door one evening£®It was Jeff's new colleague£¬John Smith£¬and his wife£¬Phyllis£®The Smiths had stopped by to £¨45£©B us with a loaf of homemade bread£®They pointed out a £¨46£©D on the porch £¨ÃÅÀÈ£©£®Apparently the doorbell wasn't working in the cold snowy weather and we had £¨47£©B a visit from the Browns£¬our across-the-street neighbors£¬who brought us a Christmas card and more Christmas cookies£®
The £¨48£©A feelings brought by these thoughtful gestures lasted longer than the food£®
As Jeff and I were £¨49£©B pre-Christmas snow from our driveway£¬Ernie Guzman came over from next door to £¨50£©C us to dig out£®
Then£¬we received an invitation to £¨51£©B a Christmas Eve meal with our neighbors£¬Ernie and Nancy Sommer£¬and their £¨52£©A-a 90-year-old lady£¬who also had no family in the immediate area with whom to spend the holiday£®
Our Christmas Eve was quite merry£¬thanks to our £¨53£©C£®Our Christmas morning£¨54£©D was special£¬thanks to the Smiths'gift of bread£®I was so £¨55£©C for these gestures of welcome£¬especially during the holidays£®
This year£¬we were again unable to be with our families for Christmas£®The £¨56£©C and work schedules just made things too difficult£®£¨57£©A that sense of Christmas isolation £¨¹ÂÁ¢£© all too well£¬we decided to try to round up some other folks who were £¨58£©C in the holidays£®
Lonely people are all around us£¬but most of us £¨59£©D notice them£®Just take a look around you£®Sometimes£¬the smallest£¨60£©B gesture can make a world of difference£®
