Have you started putting up your lights for christmas?
Here in Canada you have to start early....else it is pretty cold
and too windy to be putting up your lights and decorations
outside for Xmas. I laughed when I visited my 68 yr old
father's apartment. His christmas tree, decorations and
the manger all displayed in the first week of december.
I had barely gotton over our thanksgiving.
So many relatives so many gifts so little time.
Then I read about the shootings, murders, accidents and
I remember someone will be missing a family member
this Christmas and I lose the feeling for Christmas.
How many of us remember 26DEC2004. the tsunami
that hit, destroying homes and taking lives. The worse
thing is I was so busy partying, i did not know. My mother
called from Jamaica to find out what all the noise was about.
I said we had friends over. She said: At a time like this?".
I was a bit upset at that remark and asked what she was talking
about. 27dec2004- A day later and I just realized it.

This year is gonna being a sad or lean year for some
people out there. Remember them all and help if you
can. One day someone may have to come to your aide.
we all have those tough times.
