It’s like walking into a Christmas card out there today
It’s classic
Snow on everything including the smallest branches and every little frond is sprinkled. There’s a little breeze too, not enough to knock the snow off, but the forest is all moving and gentle and on the brink of something it seems which I guess is Christmas.
Even Daisy’s in a sort of awe I think
She stops and looks around you know almost like she’s getting ready to prance or something Christmassy but turns out that’s not exactly what she was getting ready for and I’ll stop right there.
We are going to have an outdoor Christmas again this year, a fire out the back, my brother and sister who I hope don’t need to use the bathroom and if they do I’ll just get Daisy to show them how it’s done.
Then they’ll go and it’ll be just us for dinner which I am making today but not eating so tomorrow will be soup and sandwiches and will feel like leftovers but won’t be. This is something I started a long time ago to prevent or at least delay drinking too much because you know what it’s like in the kitchen alone unless it’s just me and what happens there never fucking stays put.
Holidays are great and everything but more than that, I hope everybody’s got something awesome up their sleeves for the new year. Something exciting and fulfilling and joyous and wonderful.
Also fuck the resolutions. You’re fine as you are
