How many more holiday shopping seasons can the earth endure?
My heart reaches out to the other living species of planet Earth during this orgy of consumerism we call Christmas.

Forget the earth, I'm not sure I can endure another shopping season! I've never understood shopping as recreation. It drives me bonkers.
Having said that, I've had my family's gifts wrapped since early Dec. Keeping it simple -- the 'things' lose their allure quickly. It's the spirit of peace, holiday cheer, and the gathering of friends and family that make my Christmas a merry one.

Well said, and I hope you enjoyed a merry one, in a cozy down home way.
Happy New Year to you!
And even if I'm a bit late in responding, I'm always glad to see that you've dropped by to check on me...
