Just a Thought or Two...

It's after Christmas and before that most useless of holidays, New Years Day and the post holiday silliness of New Years Eve. For me, I can now feel that the end of yet another holiday period is coming to it's end.

Everyone knows that the real new year begins around Labor Day . Then there is the "holiday season" and that is followed by the rest of the year.After the holiday season, there are about 250 days of just ordinary life. And I don't necessarily mean this book.

I mean just living without the holiday season looming. In just a few days I will be there, it will be the rest of the year. Maybe that is what we ought to call December 31. We could call it 'It Will Finally Be Here Day'

Here I would ordinarily insert a nice long sigh..................
