Thank you, Mary! You and others have helped us to get through this horrific year. I think I missed the aforementioned highest highs though! Hereโ€™s hoping ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿผ 2026 is less politically traumatizing.

โ€œHow the Grinch Stole Christmasโ€ by Dr. Seuss

โ€ฆSo he paused. And the Grinch put his hand to his ear.

And he did hear a sound rising over the snow.

It started low. Then it started to grow.

But the sound wasn't sad! Why, this sound sounded merry!

It couldn't be so! But it WAS merry! VERY!

He stared down at Whoville! The Grinch popped his eyes!

Then he shook! What he saw was a shocking surprise!

Every Who down in Whoville, the tall and the small,

Was singing! Without any presents at all!

He HADN'T stopped Christmas from coming! IT CAME!

Somehow or other, it came just the same!

And the Grinch, with his grinch-feet ice-cold in the snow,

Stood puzzling and puzzling: "How could it be so?"

"It came with out ribbons! It came without tags!"

"It came without packages, boxes or bags!"

And he puzzled three hours, till his puzzler was sore.

Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before!

"Maybe Christmas," he thought, "doesn't come from a store."

"Maybe Christmas...perhaps...means a little bit more!โ€โ€ฆ

Try as DT does to steal our joy, Christmas still arrives for us all. Merry Christmas, Mary, and to all a good night.

Merry Christmas to you, Mary. I appreciate your videos/articles regarding your concerns about how the country is being run by your uncle. It is unfortunate that he can get whatever he wants. I especially hate the corruption that the Supreme Court has shown via backing just about anything he wants.

Itโ€™s been a mixed bag of emotions today for me. My friend of twenty five years he has Parkinsonโ€™s disease. I think he forgot his medication again. Thank you for the article Mary I will work on a video for the new year. Love the Santa Hat. Merry Christmas and a most joyous new year.
