Our bodies kinda go into hibernation for a while. Probably a very natural thing. Sleep late a couple of times, stare out the window while drinking coffee while visions of...new quilt patterns dance in your head. Then get up and go outside, if possible, and get some exercise. If not do some inside to get your blood moving.

Or, when all else fails, go into your quilting room and sob into a fat quarter of your favorite colors.
OMG, u r sooo right!!! ROFL!!!

I experience this 'post Christmas lull' no matter what the holidays bring. Emotionally, Spiritually, Physically - my entire being craves peace, quiet and no expectations of myself or from others. Life doesn't always offer the luxury to give into it, but if at all possible, embrace it and nurture yourself with doing absolutely nothing. Allowing ourselves to be still enables us to regroup, recharge and resume living the productive life we enjoy. You are most definitely not alone -- you are human.
