This year, Hanna and I have twelve days off between Christmas Eve and January 5th, when our libraries open back up for the new year. We’re looking forward to doing … not very much. 2014 whupped us good and hard, as it did many folks in our circle, and we’ve chosen to clear the final days of the year as a time and place of rest and recovery. I hope that wherever you are, whatever you’re doing, and whomever you’ve chosen to share those activities with, is exactly where you want or need to be this season. Be enough. Care for yourselves. See you on the flipside.

(Except maybe for some photos … if this damnable rain clears or snow begins to fall!)
