Some think the time between Christmas and New Year’s Day (for those that do not have to work) is the best time of the year where we lose track of what day it is and can truly relax. It is a beautiful blend of winding down from the holiday celebrations and preparing for a fresh start. It's a time to catch our breath, reminisce about the joys of the past year, and contemplate our goals for the future. Amidst the peaceful ambiance, there are opportunities for reconnection with family and friends, enjoying leisurely activities and simply taking a moment for ourselves.
It's a time where time itself seems to lose all meaning, and we're left wondering if we're supposed to be productive or just embrace the freedom of time that comes with this final week of the year.
As for us, we are taking some R&R this week up in the snow.
