Hello, all you Glassies!
Haven't popped in for a while... not feeling great. Not awful but just worn out. Whatever energy I've had has been sucked up by holiday chores. Not fun. I did some online stuff but there are things that need actual brick and mortar stores. I positively abhor malls, traffic and typical holiday tunes on Muzak. And people who steal the parking spot you waited for for 3 long minutes while Grandma maneuvered her way out of it. And people who cut me off in traffic. And store clerks, restaurant clerks who say "Zat it?" And over-decorated houses that look like Sears Trim-A-Tree Shop blew up on their front lawn.
However, I love putting large bills in the Salvation Army bucket instead of eating out. I love the girls choir who flash mobbed their harmonized rendition of O HOLY NIGHT at the supermarket. I love homemade Christmas cards from the grandpuppies. I would love to meet the folks who tied mittens, hats, scarves, etc to the trees on Boston Common for those who need them. I love that everything is shut down on Christmas Day and wish the same were true of The first day of Hannukah in honor of my Jewish friends.
Hope you all enjoy lots of the stuff you love about the holidays and not much of the poopy parts. When you think of it, those poopy parts are the least important.
Happy Holidays!
