I'm reading comments from Theresa and Kathy and remembering past christmases. It all sounds perfect, very Norman Rockwell. I've been there, done that. Now I feel as though I live in a bubble. I can see out, but most people can't see in. (What that means is that I understand what's happening in other's lives because I've experienced it myself. I don't expect others to understand what's going on in mine.)

Things have changed soooo much in the last 15 years that...well, my life is kind of surreal. I wonder how the young mothers in my classes will be in 25 years. The holidays are for family, I wasn't able to be with mine so I improvised. I won't say what I did, but it involved london broil, not turkey. I know I'm in my own little world, but that's okay. They know me here. ;- )
