Dear PoPville,
Unfortunately thanksgiving is coming up and I will be spending the holiday alone. I don’t want to stay in all day, so I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on what to do on thanksgiving solo?
I have tried in the past calling up shelters to volunteer on Thanksgiving, but it seems that that day and Christmas are always on full. I usually call well in advance, but to no avail.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.
