Christmas period ???day

I always find that through each year I know which day of the week it is, which month it is and most times, which date of the month it is. Even away on a holiday, I cope with knowing. All probably because I am structured with my gardening business then specifically holidays which are semi organised into daily routines.

So how come, when I get to Christmas Day and Boxing Day, yes I know they are in December and they are 25th and 26th respectively, but I haven’t got a clue which day of the week they have just been on! So all I see it as Christmas Dayday, then Boxing Dayday!

Now this morning is obviously the day after Boxing Dayday, but although I can easily think ‘yes it’s the day after Boxing Dayday so it must be the 27th’, I’m really struggling to think of which day of the week it is! I know it’s a ‘me thing’, and it doesn’t really matter, just find it peculiar that all year round I can cope until Christmas ‘forget-me-days’ come around again!

Update……

….ahhh…..how strange!….. Just reading that there is a specific period after Christmas Dayday/Boxing Dayday….which is known as ‘twixmas’ or ‘Crimbolimbo’ and as such I feel much better as it’s not just a ‘me’ thing ..it’s and everybodyme thing…cool!

And folk saying that they have lost track of what day it is as it’s not important as one day ‘drifts’ into another and they all get ‘blended’ together!

How lucky I am not to have to go to work anymore ( if I choose not to)….although my fear is that one day when I do finally hang up my gardening gloves for good and close my gardening business then everyday will just ‘blend’ together. Probably have to be called my ‘twixyear’ or ‘Yearbolimbo’ or something!
