Could it be that money is so tight this year to so many people?
I know plenty of Mom's and Dad's that are feeling the financial pinch.
Perhaps the grinch has really stolen Christmas.
Though today Larry, my kids "helped" me put up my mom's tree and ornaments, we then went on an outdoor Christmas decoration drive-by. Nothing like kids to make you feel the spirit. My little two have been wearing thier Santa hats since Thanksgiving.


Its only art if it don't catch fish!

Unhappy

To be honest, I could just skip the whole thing this year. I've never felt this humbuggy before. You can keep it all..

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.

i'm with you guys- i enjoy the family and friends aspect. they can keep the rest of it- ultra commercialization. it's His birthday not a retail sales holiday.
