Just a heartfelt Merry Christmas to my loyal readers.

Wishing you joy…

And a Christmas Day filled with everything that makes your heart sing.

May your tree stay vertical, may your outdoor lights stay lit…

And may the birds not strip your wreath down to the wire.

(Speaking from experience)

And now seems a perfect time to say thanks….

Thanks for being there when I log in.

Thanks for putting up with the 112 part series of my vacations and my endless photos of rocks.

Thanks for the laughter, and the snarky banter.

But most of all?

Thanks for not posting those sickeningly sweet pictures of Elf on a Shelf.

I really hate that little bastard.

(Okay, there was a small amount of funny business.

So sue me…)
