hello,

I want to apologize for being somewhat cranky lately.  the truth is (and 
aren't we supposed to admit the truth, or something like that?) I hate 
christmas.  I have hated christmas for a long time.  every year I expect it 
to be different.  hah!  every year, it is the same old stressful thing and 
then I get sick.  in the past it was more severe (flu or bronchitis or 
pneumonia) now it's down to a really bad cold.  yuck.  this year, I had my 
stress quota, then I got sick and was miserable for the last 3 or 4 days.  
hoping all the bad stuff is over for now.

anybody else out there hate christmas?  thinking of starting next year's 
travel plans now,

Mary K

seriously, I like christmas music, and exchanging gifts is nice, but 
everything else about it, I hate.  seeing family - stressful.  bad memories 
of xmases past.  too many things that can't be said or done.  bah humbug!  if 
you love the holiday, great and more power to you!  I'm just not fooling 
myself any more.

People hurry by so quickly
Don't they hear the melodies
In the chiming and the clicking
And the laughing harmonies
- Joni Mitchell
