    – You get to say Hallel and Mussaf so it feels more like Yom Tov

    – It’s not the end so you don’t feel sad it’s over

    – Most of the parties are over the weekend so you get to stay home more

    – Hallel is practically routine

    nice.

    Agree -and love- the first 3 points.

    Don’t agree with the last though, Hallel shouldn’t be routine at all and should be fresh and exciting like the first time

    It’s a fresh and exciting routine, though.

    Longest Rosh Chodesh davening ever.

    -Two Sifrei Torah

    -Full Hallel

    Except for Rosh Hashana.

    It could have been even longer had Rosh Chodesh come out on Shabbos, no?

    Well oomis:- Not exactly, because if Rosh Chodesh Teves came out on Shabbos, would only pray Mussoph twice throughout Chanukah, whereas this year we pray Mussoph thrice during Chanukah.

    But these 2 scenarios entail not reciting long Tachnun thrice by virtue of Chanukah.

    Furthermore, Rosh Chodesh Teves being Tuesday & Wednesday is not the usual unfortunate scenario of 2 times running reciting long Tachnun, when other Roshei Chodoshim come out on Tuesday & Wednesday.
