I have a few visits to make soon, people I haven't seen for a while face-to-face who don't get out much. I'll deliver some homemade breads or cinnamon rolls to sweeten the visit.

The time right after xmas and the new year are statistically when there are more deaths (or this used to be the case - my mom the social worker had lots of odd facts about this kind of thing). The excitement of the holidays and visiting is followed by the darker quiet months of winter (perhaps this is just a northern hemisphere phenomon) of nothing to look forward to. Getting through the dark months is another way to stay afloat, so everyone, take care of yourselves.
