My romantic soul is always glad to see friends and family, admire sparkling snow and tinsel, sing carols, and sit by the fire. But even I’m about ready to bring this festive season to a close.
Since December15, I’ve taken part in over a dozen holiday gatherings with people I adore. They all featured jingling music, good laughs and games – plus cookies, alcohol, and (often) that addictive layered salsa and cheese dip that everyone’s mom seems to make.
I call this back-to-back line up of heart-warming, artery-clogging parties the Christmas Marathon. I start the race happily chugging along, but by about 2 p.m. on New Year’s Day, I’m crawling to the finish line, weighed down by holiday excess.
New Year’s Eve is my last hurrah – the final sprint. At this moment, I’m looking forward to visiting with dear friends and popping some champagne. I’m also exhausted to the core and battered by my annual Christmas virus – my body’s way of saying: “stop! stop! too much wine!”
As I pull on my rather tight party dress and pack Tobias’s boot with board games, booze and Benadryl, I’m as excited about the evening ahead as I am about the next day. With a bit of luck, I’ll spend tomorrow night sitting on my couch, eating kale, and remembering the joys of the festive season.
Happy New Year to all!
Hello Field 
Our contractors have the knowledge and training that once we put it down right, asphalt holds up as good as concrete and it’s less expensive. Once it is done right, your driveway or parking lot can last you up to twenty years if you maintain it every year the right way. This means that in the wintertime, you don’t use any harsh salt that can damage the driveway or lot. During the hotter months, getting a proper asphalt seal coating done is key to keep it looking new. Contact us today to learn more about how we can help you. https://www.pavingsimcoecounty.ca/
