Good morning

Another dramatic sunrise.

As a self employed person working mainly in public sector I'm not looking forward to an enforced week off (more like three weeks) after a poor December so far, as everything and everyone are winding down for what to me is still a Catholic Christian celebration of a birth of Christ the Saviour - I grew up in Poland so there was only religious flavour to all the Christmas celebrations even if your family was not particularly into church going...

Should the whole secular leaning country really come to a standstill for a religious holiday...?
