Usually there is a strong feeling between Christmas and New Year that the next few days accumulate to just a lost week...many facilities in the Colonies close down, friends and family are either too close for comfort or too far away, money is in short supply due to loose spending and the inability to earn due to holidays and so we all bunker down and eat plently of leftovers from Christmas and await the promise of the New Year when overnight many of us feel that we can reinvent ourselves...yes..
Come January 1st we start our resolutions with determination and good will with the hope that they may last just a little longer than last years did.
We finally allow ourselves to stop the copious overeating and drinking that was totally allowed between Christmas and New Year and we begin it all again.
meanwhile..for now..
enjoy the twilight zone when we are neither in the year of 2011 nor in 2012 but await it with the hope of a child on Christmas Eve that maybe this time the Gods will be kind.
