Christmas is here…oh, wait
December 26th, 2007
Thousands of miles from home, family
and a Catholic service I can understand,
wanting to spend some time of fasting and reflection,
friends come into town just to spend the day with me
I overdo the turkey, eggnog, cranberry sauce, stuffing and beef
only to spend hours vacillating in euphoria and gastritis,
There’s this huge smile on my face
And tons of emails and calls:
where you been? how come you don’t write? when are you updating your blog?
So what has changed about my life?
I know that home is anywhere in the world,
friends love you at any distance,
and even though I have a tendency to overdo work
structure and downtime make a great balance.
Big kisses from my little hole in the wall:
Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, Thank you for letting me be my goofy self!
