January

January has never been my favorite month of the year - nor is it now.  Christmas has been dismantled and put in the spare room until next year.

The weather is cold and windy and not friendly.

There are no really good holidays in January, until you get to the end of the month and my friend's birthday.  That is always a great day because, for two whole weeks every year, she is an entire year older than I am.

The best part about January is that it only lasts for 31 days and then we can be through with it for another year.
