We've spent most of the week wondering what day it is or whether we need to get dressed. We haven't eaten many vegetables or brushed any teeth, but we have indulged in fried chicken and extra queso and all the holiday cookies seem to be gone. We've tackled a few thank you notes and worked on new puzzles and watched several movies and read even more books.
And I know we're not alone here, during this time between Christmas and a brand new year, in the way it feels perfectly acceptable to sit on the couch all morning and to substitute things like chocolate ice cream for actual meals, in the way it all feels very peace on earth.
