The In-Between Week

The week between Christmas and New Year is always an interesting one for me. I love the magic of Christmas and I love the fresh start of the New Year. But December 26th - December 31st sits in the in-between. It leaves me with an odd unresolved feeling -- a charge from the day and frankly, after-Christmas sales and a doubt that I haven't done what I should for the year. The song "So This is Christmas" runs in my head. "What have I done?" This is a question I have come to before and I find myself here again.Do you feel stuck in the in-between? 

So this is Christmas And what have you done? Another year over And a new one just begun And so this is Christmas I hope you have fun The near and the dear one The old and the young A very merry Christmas And a happy New Year Let's hope it's a good one Without any fear And so this is Christmas For weak and for strong For rich and the poor ones The world is so wrong And so happy Christmas For black and for white For yellow and red ones Let's stop all the fight A very merry Christmas And a happy New Year Let's hope it's a good one Without any fear And so this is Christmas And what have we done? Another year over And a new one just begun Ans so this is Christmas I hope you have fun The near and the dear one The old and the young A very merry Christmas And a happy New Year Let's hope it's a good one Without any fear War is over over If you want it War is over Now
