Our gingerbread house is not glued together yet.
The windows on the first floor were not cleaned before Christmas.
The silverware is not polished.
Most of my Christmas letters for friends abroad is not yet written.
Today is the third day of Christmas, a couple of house guests have left, a new one has arrived. I am taking Marta to the hairdresser, we are all going to the huge family gathering Christmas party.
Time slips through my fingers like grains of sand and I strive to keep them there long enough to feel them, long enough to love them.
New Year and New Year's time for resolutions is approaching fast. I need to learn which grains to let go and which to keep long enough to build castles.
