广东这边习惯把红包称为“利是”，而“利是”这个词应该是取自“利市”的谐音，所谓“利市”，望文生义便知是“有利开市”的大概意思。 以前不是有个顺口溜嘛：*东南西北中，发财到广东。广东人春节见面相互喜欢说“恭喜发财”，尤其是做生意的，这句话是常挂在嘴边的。 当然，民间老百姓的看法是“利是”即“利事”，就是“诸事顺利”的意思，春节是一年的开始，取个好彩头。

假期已经过去几天了，越来越没有过节的气氛了。😮‍💨 为什么这么说呢？因为，小时候过年，还有压岁钱，家里人丁兴旺，七大姑八大姨都来为家中老人拜年祝寿🧨。而现在，人情味越来越淡薄，亲人相近离开了，聚会也变少了，所以，就没有过年的气息了。 今年的大北京，也没有以往有烟花了。国家不许卖也不让放。我们只能通过朋友圈或者电视节目看看祖国的烟花🎇。 大年初一去健身房锻炼了，健身房名为家铁。是可爱阿童木的LOGO

晚上，老婆做了一大桌饭菜，一家人喜气洋洋地坐一起，准备开吃。 咦，今天是除夕嘛，不讲几句祝福的话？ 我刚提议，老大就急忙开口， “祝爸爸妈妈新年快乐，万事如意！” 然后看了看弟弟，示意轮到弟弟讲了。 弟弟也不甘落后，赶忙端起杯子，大声地讲， “祝爸爸妈妈新年快乐，长命百岁！” 听到弟弟讲“长命百岁”，我跟孩子妈妈先是一愣，相互看了下，笑了起来。乍一听觉得这话怪怪的，但仔细一想，孩子祝我们长命百岁，这话也没毛病啊！

这十几年来，我们老家这个小县城已经发展跟城市无异，春节期间张灯结彩，一派喜气洋洋的热闹氛围，人们的穿着也不再只有暗淡的深色系棉服，也像春天一样有五彩斑斓的颜色和风格各异的款式。这些变化都是显而易见的。

总觉得上班时间过得很快，一轮班四天过得很快，如果一切都正常，好像没做啥；不过休息的日子，满打满算48小时，就过得更快了…… 回家又把春节续上了，还跑了几家亲戚拜年，火炉子也烤了，太阳也晒了，看别人打牌的也看了，零食水果也吃了，其实休息的两整天过得挺充实的，甚至包含睡觉在内，都很紧凑😂但，这两天过的还是太快了，因为转眼间就又要上班了，真心舍不得，只能说休息的时光真是太可贵了，一分一秒都是掰着指头过的😂

正月初二，开始搬砖。清晨的马路上，车辆稀少；街灯还亮着，灯光穿透薄雾，从树叶的掩映下，显得有点苍白无力，又或者像休息不够，还在睡梦中一样…… 感觉越来越懒了，尤其是在说教方面，因为改变一个人的思想是真的太难了。 你要想通过三言两语来让面前的对话者改变他的想法，着实具有非常大的挑战性。

昨夜跨年夜不知道大家几点睡的？反正我是将近下半夜2点才睡觉，其实也没看什么春晚，就是忙着忙着就很晚了。 吃完了除夕大餐，就已经是5点左右了，然后收拾完，出去放了烟花，送走姐姐和小姑子一家回来就已经接近了7点，稍微的休息了一会儿，看看电视，写写帖子，就到了9点多！

真正的三十儿终于来了！早上早早起来，吃过饭，就开始忙活，先将该化的海鲜，鱼，排骨啥的赶紧拿出来化了，然后开始筹备大餐。 10点左右的时候，姐姐和外甥小姑一家都到了，大家聚在一起不胜欢喜。

An account of only the worst incidents during my life in China, all crammed for convenience sake into two easily chronicled, though barely managed, months.  I don’t want to be misleading. My past year

.....continuing my last post So what did I do this 14th Feb ? The answer is - something more exciting than shopping or treating myself a lavish meal. Yes, I was home after two long long long years for
