This is the week

This is the week, in between Christmas and New Year's, where everything seems to slow down. Most people are on vacation and things seem to be on auto-pilot. It's nice. As for me I am working away and enjoying everyone else being relaxed and in a holiday induced good mood.

My Christmas was great. Very relaxing and low key. It was a relief to have the transit strike end and the weather in New York is quite mild. The Christmas lights, in our apartment and in town, still are on and to me they always look nicer after December 25th. Instead of signaling a impeding event, the light now just brightens up the area with memories of a happy holiday.

Since I am so busy this week I may or may not do a 2005 retrospective or a 2006 "look ahead". You'll just have to check back and see.
