1 Day of Thankfulness: My favourite time of the year

This is it. I just dwell in these moments, savouring them for other times, lonelier times, more normal days in the 365 ahead. Family all around buzzing and bopping, kids weaving between the adults who are either arguing over how best to cook a roast, or who last had the sugar bowl, or whether the dog should be in or out. It’s that chaos around spilled champagne on Christmas sweaters, the wrong card on a gift or whether the lights are on that are the equation for happiness.  No one works. There’s lots of sleep. Martinis. Chocolates. And kisses. I’m certainly not complaining about anything. Not until tomorrow, that is. Happy Christmas, my friends!
