as a single mother whose son had to split Christmas holidays with his father, I got used to being alone years ago. As such, I was happy when the holiday season was over. Being in health care, I would always volunteer to work those holidays. This year my son should be around for both holidays....next year, who knows...I'll probably be back to looking forward to the holidays ending or perhaps next year I'll try to find some way to volunteer for something....but my dogs will keep me company no matter what.
