Seagirl, being home alone around the holidays is tough. I find that I need to have something on, the TV, or itunes, anything... because the silence becomes too much. This year it's even harder because I can't go home to be with my family (I'm finishing a research study that wouldn't be done in time unless I worked every day through January), and most of my friends have left the area for the holidays, so the alone-ness is even more than I'm used to.
The house is empty, but I'm hanging in there with lots of yoga and funny TV shows, maybe a bit more wine than I should, but things are okay so far. There's also 3FC!
Merry Christmas, have a great time with your family!
