You're quite the agreeable guy today :-)
DeleteSo many questions ... is it Friday yet? Have the visitors been and gone? Are these my feet? Who am I?
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Great thoughts.
DeleteUgh! Such an awkward time!
ReplyDeleteI agree. I think I've asked myself four times today if it's Wednesday or Thursday.
DeleteHappy New Year when it comes!
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteI chuckle at this. My entire retirement life is like this, I guess that's why the week between Christmas and New Years doesn't seem all that different except keeping track of the mail delivery days and bank holidays. This year has really changed things up. I'm assuming that the week seems to be going slower as there is no routine in the neighborhood. No children going to and from school. No people taking their walks on certain days at certain times. People going to and from work. It's all pretty quiet, and with the cold fog, seems to move in slow motion.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was working the flow of the holiday week was much different.
DeleteIs there one more cookie left? I just need one more. I am going to go cold turkey on Jan 1st, but right now...
ReplyDeleteI can relate!

ReplyDeleteI wouldn't have a problem with any of those questions.
ReplyDelete:-)
DeleteIt's the time of the year where I'm thinking I really need to lose weight as I eat another mince pie.
ReplyDeleteAll diet goals are suspended until after January 1st.
DeleteWhat a wonderful word!
ReplyDeleteSomeone called it the betwixt times!
ReplyDeleteThat's a wonderful explanation!
