It is -8 degrees below zero this morning. It feels like -25 with the wind. It is also the first morning of our winter break. We are all buried in blankets and comfy clothes. The coffee is hot and the wind howls. Christmas is coming, and gifts await wrapping, and the house demands cleaning. It feels as if everyone has been straining to get to this first morning of break, and now that it is here, we find ourselves on empty. Now is the time we need to refuel and return to full strength in terms of sleep and rest and general recovery. Today we take things slow. Today we take care to take care. Today is the start of winter break. Today is a cold rest.
