Bring it on.

So the winter solstice is past. Apparently, it took our ancient ancestors several days to be certain of this fact. lacking as they did the modern instruments available to astronomers. And so we celebrate on Thursday. This would have been in the begining the festival of Yule or some such before it was hijacked by the Christians as Christmas Day. The Romans, slow in the uptake perhaps didn't get around to having the New Year for another week. But that's good, because we're getting our shot at celebrating twice. 
Enjoy and hope you avoid unnecessary complications.
