I am not into celebrating the new year, so they are generally muted affairs that involves sharing personal wishes with friends and family. Still, seeing new calendars hung on the wall in the new year does make you happy and hopeful. Read my posts on 2015 new year and 2006 new year.

My mom & calendars:

Though I am not a fan of hanging more than one calendar in the house, my mom adores them. For her, it is a ritual to keep collecting/buying daily sheets and monthly calendars from the first week of December, shortlisting the ones, then mapping the calendars to individual rooms (and sometimes multiple calendars to a single room). Since most of the calendars we get feature Hindu Gods, she doesn’t like to discard the previous years’, instead they are preserved in storage for posterity!

Do you like calendars?

What is your experience with wall-hanging, paper calendars that come out every year? Do you still have them in your house?
