I have the same thoughts about Christmas as you. Glad when it's over.
ReplyDeleteI have spent way too much time in the sun and I now have lots of wrinkles!
ReplyDelete#1...it has been raining a lot here for the past two weeks or so. I have noticed the kids at school getting cranky. We can't go out and the sun is not out. Well, the last two days or so the sun was out. I put the blinds up and let the sunshine in the classroom. The kids were so happy about that. It makes such a difference.
ReplyDeleteI was just telling Roger about what we are teaching at school. #13 and talking to ourselves. I think we learn on our own to do that as we get a little older, but we are teaching it in Pre-K to help kids stay focused and remember what they are doing...they call it self talk and it is part of a social emotional curriculum. So, it is not weird, it just helps us stay focused on what we are doing. I "self talk" a lot. Most teachers do. I can imagine as a writer it is a must also. So many thoughts to write down. Anyway...Merry Christmas! Loved your answers! Have a nice weekend.

I got an online subscription for the NYT. I love having it.
ReplyDeleteI read news from a variety of sources, too.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite thing about Christmas is buying gifts for other people, too.
ReplyDeleteAw man, I hate to see the winter/Christmas blues hit you again. Have you ever tried light therapy or taking huge doses of vitamin D3? I used to get the blues every year once Christmas was over, but 5000 iu's of D3 daily seems to have kicked the blues butt.
