I may be the only person I know who really digs the month of January.

Where most folks see a month of diabolical bone-chilling winds and Christmas bills arriving in a blizzard, I see a things of rest and reflection, the gift of a moment to withdraw and take stock and mentally regroup, as my equally strict-working wife likes to say.
