The family. We were a strange little band of characters trudging through life sharing diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common thread that bound us all together. ~Erma Bombeck

The Aftermath
My real Christmas is over. I spent yesterday with the kids and Kathy unwrapping gifts, playing with games and toys, hanging out with my wonderful sister Patti, and snoozing on the couch inbetween all those things. Today everyone will be gone. I will most likely snuggle up on the couch with the mega soft blankie Kat got me, and watch TV. I have "Last House on the Left" and the pilot and first episode of "Fringe". Tonight I get the kids back for the weekend, so I will enjoy a little me time...which is also a nice gift. I'm gonna grind up some of the bird, add mayo and pickle relish, and pretend its colder than it is. If I can't make myself believe, then I'll gear up and head out for a ride!
