a PhD free Christmas?

For the first time in four years I'm going into Christmas without a PhD hanging over my head. While I'm happy about this prospect, it's also somewhat weird. My 'normal' these past four years has always included the PhD and it feels somewhat unsettling not to have it, also like a warm, snugly comfort blanket. Of course I still have to sort out the 'minor corrections' - I received the notification from the Research School last week and have until February to sort everything out. Although I want it done and dusted come the new year. It would be lovely to have the PhD completely wrapped by before I see in '2014'. So it seems my Christmas won't be completely free of the PhD.
