Now I&#8217;d be lying if I said I looked forward to that day. I want to say I&#8217;m adventurous (cough cough) but we all know what level of adventure I&#8217;m currently at. So, even though it&#8217;s not what I expected and the day went relatively tranquil, the moment they started talking about having another yes-day made me go a bit cookoo again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So. January 1st, 2025 will be the day. I will report back if we&#8217;ve survived the day (read here: I) and how it all went about. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What do you think? Would you warrant a yes-day within your family? If so, what do you expect to gain from having such a day? What kind of limits would you impose on the requests? Because of course if they come and ask to eat ice-cream the whole day&#8230; I can but imagine the sugar rush and the accompanied frenzy that would follow such a day! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So &#8211; let me know how you envision this so maybe we can compare notes. Let&#8217;s GO!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"851\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/iamariadne.com\/Chronicles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/image.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-481\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iamariadne.com\/Chronicles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/image.png 851w, https:\/\/iamariadne.com\/Chronicles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/image-300x111.png 300w, https:\/\/iamariadne.com\/Chronicles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/image-768x284.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 851px) 100vw, 851px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A year or so ago, me and the kids saw the Yes-movie.
