Thank heavens for the "Information Superhighway" which has been transformed into the "Shopping Express Lane". Gone are the crowds in the stores... replaced by UPS, USPS and FedEx vehicles zipping here and there and everywhere!

Is nice and toasty warm... oh wait a second... I just froze my butt off shoveling snow this morning. (gotta make sure UPS, USPS and FedEx delivery people don't slip and fall today bringing me Christmas Cheer)

Don't give the porch pirates an easy escape route. 😆

{laugh} I'm not sure we have any of those here in Aberdeen. There are plenty of videos on other platforms showing all kinds of anti porch pirate techniques. I think they'd have to have a mental defect to try and steal from my porch.

Very poignant. Also, in my head, the peace of Christ's birth .creates an image in my mind that is full of hope and wonder.

Merry Christmas to you, to yours, and to everyone. 💙

Thank you, brother, for the beautiful reminder of what this season is TRULY about. I grew tired of the mayhem that has consumed this season that celebrates greed and gluttony in the form of some jolly fat man in red some time ago. I was awakened to the Truth of why we celebrate Christmas. Heck, His name is in the word!! I pray, as always, that those who have lost sight of the importance of Christ's sacrifice, will once again see the Light and be saved. Amen.
