Thank you, and Merry Christmas. I'm surrounded by plenty of love, from 4 cats and a wonderful husband, to long distance family engagement via texts, photos and videos of grandchildren in other states. It's nothing like our 1970s Christmas gatherings, but the love and fellowship are still there.

Merry Christmas Monica! Thank you for this! It’s a hard one for me this year. Alone, well, my cat is here. Just some family estrangement making it sad
