Spending time with friends and family during festive periods is always fun. I mean the entertaining company, the good food, drinks, the gifts, etc. Because of this I can say the end of the year is my most favorite part of it, it always leaves me with fun memories. Enter January and on comes the dreary drudgery, going back to work and all that, the stress and the burnouts.

Seems you're enjoying yourself in your family's gatherings, and though it would have been much more if you could join the conversations actively, throw jokes and laugh at others'. I wish you and your family a great holiday season and a wonderful New year in advance.
