DOWNTIME

One of the things I love most about Christmas is that for one day, everyone stops their busy bustling lives to be with loved ones and truly be present. Yesterday there was no emailing, no laptops, no deadlines... just family and friends and gifts and delicious meals...

So today, instead of returning to the frenzy, I'm choosing to extend a little bit of this peace and quiet for one more week. As we head into 2012, I'll be taking time to reflect on the past year and plan for the year ahead, to spend a bit more time with good friends, and to enjoy a little downtime while I've got it! I wish you all a bit of the same...
