Post-Christmas Slump

Settling in to the post-Christmas blues. Actually, it's a relief that it's over. I'm sure I'm not alone in that. This Christmas was weird, however, as we didn't get back from a trip to the South Pacific until the 20th (I know, but somebody has to do it), and then spent Christmas at relative's, so made close to zero preparations for the holiday.

We enjoyed not having to lift a finger, though, and still ending up well-fed. Not going through the agony of decision over whether to buy or cut a Christmas tree was refreshing, too. We didn't put one up at all. This meant I didn't have to crawl on hands and knees to the back of the closet to retrieve ornaments.

This year, I was the Grinch.
