And so that was Christmas
As usual at this time of year, the day itself flew by almost unnoticed. Apart from a whole series of highs and lows, the entire Christmas period seems to have disappeared without making any real impression. My partner and I had a nice quiet evening on the 24th, with a rather yummy dinner (even if I do say so myself), a decent bottle of wine and a couple of amusing films. It was nice just to bum around and do very little except enjoy each other’s company.
Christmas Day itself, we slept most of the time since we’d been up really late, and just turned into couch potatoes for a while. Very relaxing, especially since - no matter what problems real life holds - everything was closed and there was nothing we could do about letters, banks or whatever else. In between snoozes, we both pottered around a bit, laughed a lot and amused ourselves as we might. All in all, a very quiet, relaxing time.
