I've been sort of musing over the holidays this month, and as I sort of wrap it all up, I'm realizing that I need to focus more on what *real life* holiday/winter/Christmas season is instead of what it was or what I think it's *supposed* to be. Meaning, next year I want to focus on what the tastes and smells and sounds and colors and feelings that the holidays bring about for us, as they are. Snowflakes and icicles and red and green don't really resonate, so maybe that's why I've felt a disconnect. As I'm looking back at my photos from this Christmas I can see that there was a meaningful, sacred thread in there, I just didn't recognize it because it wasn't screaming "TRADITIONAL BIGTIME TWINKLY CHRISTMAS" and that's what I have been searching for. Maybe now that I "get" it, I can see it differently next year.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17204422715168104427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-973382467619693432.post-62689779400803231352012-12-29T14:42:09.169-08:002012-12-29T14:42:09.169-08:00We ended our Friday with a lovely hot tub.

The best single day of tiling yet.Sherwin Goerlitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15819728977792967305noreply@blogger.com
