-The week between Christmas and New Years has come to be known as “Twixmas”, and has affectionately been pronounced as the week to do nothing! So, what goes on this week? In England, its known as Boxing Week, an extension of Boxing Day, in its current form, it is a day to box up and get rid of extra stuff, or regift unwanted gifts. But here in the states, it’s simply a time to DO NOTHING! So relax next week. Watch some great movies, catch some of the entertainers, maybe go play some games. Visit with friends and fellow residents. Or take an extra nap, relax, and recharge the batteries! We promise not to tell!
