Enjoy the season

December 16, 2016

A quick post this evening.

Life has some simple pleasures. One of them? Sitting after dark in a room with just Christmas lights on. It’s soothing and relaxing.

The colors of the lights just sitting there and lighting the room gives it a nice ambiance.

Even knowing it’s cold outside, it’s nice inside.

There’s snow outside, but not inside.

Instead, it’s a glow of the season. A reminder of how nice and joyous this season can and should be.

Make sure you remember this season, no matter your beliefs, should be one of peace and happiness. Spend it with friends and family and smile as much as you can.

Season of giving

December 8, 2016

I need a quick post today, so allow me to give a word about this season.

Life isn’t always great for others. Life can always be worse for you. If you are reading this, hopefully life is at least decent.

So take this season to give a little. Maybe it’s a toy drive. Maybe it’s “adopting” a person in a holiday present drive. Whatever it is, do your best to give back. Our world isn’t the nicest right now — so no matter your beliefs, take this time of year to give back a little. I’m doing my best to do it and I hope others will do the same.

Take away religion — and remember that this season is about being happy and trying to pass that along to others. At least in my mind.

Be kind to one another. We need a lot more of that in our world.

Make up our minds, Mother Nature!

December 6, 2016

The Christmas season is upon us, it seems.

Lights are popping up all over the place. People seem to be somewhat festive. The holiday music is all over, especially on two channels on SiriusXM.

Snow is again in the forecast in the coming days. That is not so fun.

I don’t mind a little snow, but I’d rather not be dumped on again. Especially during the week as it makes going to work not so fun. This weekend, there are plans, too, so the weather would be a total downer.

Alas, it’s part of living in the Northeast.

That being said, I do want to see snow on Christmas. The whole green Christmas thing is just not fun.

Last year was mild. This area set records for the lack of snow. I think we ended with like 19 inches – total. We might have that by the end of December!

So we’ll get some snow the next few days. Then it’ll be gone. And who knows what Christmas will bring.

Mother Nature needs to make up her mind, though! Damn her.

How’s the weather near you? Feeling like the holidays yet?

It’s beginning to look a lot like …

November 18, 2016

OK, maybe not.

But it seems like the “Christmas” season starts sooner and sooner every year. This year, it was tip-toeing into October.

Sooner or later, the Christmas sales could start in July and August!

Look, I like Christmas. It’s one of my favorite times of the year. With the music and the festivities, and everything else … it’s really a wonderful time.

But stores are starting much earlier.

Can Halloween and Thanksgiving at least be done before we start the sales and displays?

That being said, I’m going to admit that I’ve had the “Holly” channel on SiriusXM a few times already. Not non-stop by any means, but I’ve played a few songs when I hear something I like. I can’t lie that I love holiday music. It makes me cheery, so I can dig it. But I’ve had to turn it off after a song or three because it’s just not “time” yet.

That being said, once Thanksgiving goes by, I’ll be more apt to listen to holiday tunes. The music is pretty much uplifting and joyous, which makes it nice.

But there’s a limit, too, hence why waiting until after Thanksgiving to really crank it up.

Alas, this is still November and Thanksgiving hasn’t happened yet.

Stop rushing things … Christmas comes once a year. It doesn’t have to be for two or three months!

Merry Christmas!

December 25, 2015

Please allow me a moment to wish everybody out there a Merry Christmas and a wonderful holiday season. Be safe and healthy.

To family, friends, and all those in the blogging universe — make this season one to remember and enjoy the time with your loved ones. For those who celebrate this day, enjoy yourself, have fun and appreciate the day for what it is. It’s definitely a time we should reflect on the good and try to make positives out of any negatives.

Remember, also, that this day goes beyond materialistic items. Whether it’s a truly religious day for you or one where you spend it with family and/or friends, take it all in. Gifts are fun to exchange, but in the end, keep it in perspective.

Enjoy the day! And have a wonderful holiday season!

I will not apologize for getting emotional and a little misty in the eye on reflecting on this moment and the story of our nation.
