Another special day that has a wicked name as well

It has been a week now that no additional entries appeared on the blog. A bit of a shame and I feel ashamed especially that there are so many who are now constantly reminding me that they want to make an appearance.
It is a very special day! Millions if not billions of people will celebrate that a winter day passed and another winter day has come. That we get through the darkness of nights and nothing special happens except for fireworks. According to Tobi It’s a day to mark that a circle has a beginning and an end. He chuckles to himself. So far he came up with the best symbolism what’s happening today. Why today? I would be more curious. Marking a sense of continuity, repeated cycles of life is wonderful but why in such an odd date? Does it have to do something with a particular Pope? So where should this leave those secular or other type of religious people? And then, what does it say about dominance of now globalised culture… The gang is excited a lot about it. Moses and the dragons normally would sleep through the winter so this is pretty much their first new year’s eve. We are going out tonight to a friend’s today but the gang stays. They gonna have a real party not this boring stuff with the kids sleeping next door. Well, as longs as they clean up,
The festive days were nice. Wonderful presents, an amusing surprise! Life goes on and the sun is shining although we can only use our imagination to see it or pictures… Still behind trees, buildings grass. Tobi and Elena still take regular trips high up to the sky to sunbathe a bit. They take Blabla and Zigy with them. Recently Moses signed up for it us well. I am most surprised.
Here is an entry that has never got finished from the 25th
The Present Day… and surprises!
At half three this morning with loving, patient but certainly determined persistence she woke me. It was, supposedly, time to open the presents. It wasn’t and although we couldn’t use the classic ‘it’s still dark, go back to sleep’ escape as here and now that would mean having 5 hours short days and 19 hours sleeping marathons. But She managed to be convinced and we went back to sleep for another three hours! I consider myself lucky.
We found Moses sitting among the presents. He sat up all night and when asked he explained this was the only way he could be part of the wonderful morning. Otherwise he would have slept in. Probably right. Besides, he wanted to make sure that from the lovely bows we save from the packaging he would get a pink one. He did!

I wish you all a wonderful time, prosperous and happy 2009!
