There's something so appealing about the *after Christmas* feeling. Fresh new starts and all. Seems that as soon as the table is cleaned from our big Christmas dinner in the evening on Christmas night, and the presents are gradually put away, that I feel a lightening in my heart. I'm ready to toss out and freshen up.
'Course with this flu-like virus still taking hold in our house (2 healing and 2 in different spots of illness), there's not a hurry to do a winter cleaning. That'll have to wait until everyone is well. But, I can begin to figure out things in my own mind, and decide what needs to go and what must stay.
And as to resolutions---I'm not so good at keeping them. Maybe I'll just focus on short-term changes---ones that have more likelihood of being fulfilled. We'll see.
