Happy Holidays
Whether you celebrate Christmas, Hannukah -- or just being alive -- may there be fellowship at your table and warmth at your hearth -- as we all try our best to deal with this snowstorm.
Owen! You know that the world is a little better place for your efforts, and who knows what seeds you sow along the way and the multiplier effect they may have in blooming eventually. May you get what you have wished for others.
Seasons Greetings Net Friend I envy your 'snow'storm Like a flat tire You know exactly what to do next Or did that auto correct on you? And what Danneau said ..... And a missing in action note for your wall Seasons Greeting for Mound On the chance he drops by
Be very happy, healthy and safe in the New Year. Even though I wait for each of your posts with pleasure, I still worry about you making a target of yourself in a tough world.
I have the luxury of being retired, hels, and the good fortune to be married to a woman who proofreads all of my posts. For over forty years, she has helped me not to make mistakes. Have a happy holiday season.
Yikes! Owen, I live in the Gtr. Vancouver area and we have snow coming out of our ying yang. We go from a hotter than normal summer to a snowier/colder winter - who says we're not seeing weather changing here in Lotus Land?
Anyhow, enough with the complaining and just do what we can as individuals and hope we can make a difference.
So, wishing you and all your faithful commenters a Merry Christmas and hope for a happier 2023 as well.
It's been snowing here for two days, Lulymay, and all the roads are closed. But we are warm and staying put. This too shall pass. Have a happy holiday season.
.. Our christmas plans are truly low key Owen little early excitement from two dogs with their stockings Boss entrain CN to Ingersoll & quiet day with Mother Boss I hopes she’ll return tonight with magical baked goods
I’ll subsist on Boss’s wondrous Paella & libations tidy the property with snow shovel, read alot, write alot Tall son lent me a spare Blue Ray Player & Movies We ‘zoomed’ briefly last night with western family & my big sis.. who just published an amazing book with 5 other ‘Mothers’ & their short form ‘memoir’ writings It’s called ‘Mother Load’ ..
(later, I should pass on the Details to you & Lorne ie the ‘Program’ that is fostering such works)
Ellen is a retired Ontario Master Educator.. but the writing talent she’s set free is astonishing ! And who else could saddle up & gentle Our Family History for the rest of us !
Hope your back.. lumbar regions .. and mine too can venture into another season of snow & cold & emerge into the splendour of Spring.. with aplomb !
All the best to your wide group & following - aussi ! Your Family & Friends, Associates.. From My Clan & Boss ! 🦎
It's been snowing for three days here, e.a.f. And in some places, there are seven-foot drifts across the highway. It's going to be a while before we get moving. But it's still Christmas. Have a good holiday.

Best to you and yours.
Thanks for providing a little corner where civil discourse can take place!
Owen! You know that the world is a little better place for your efforts, and who knows what seeds you sow along the way and the multiplier effect they may have in blooming eventually. May you get what you have wished for others.
Merry Christmas to you and yours as well, PoV.
Here's hoping that -- as foolish as it sounds, Danneau -- the world manages to right itself a bit in the coming year.
All the best to you and your family, Owen, and keep up your excellent work in 2023!

I envy your 'snow'storm
Like a flat tire
You know exactly what to do next
Or did that auto correct on you?
And what Danneau said
.....
And a missing in action note for your wall
Seasons Greeting for Mound
On the chance he drops by
All the best to you and your family, Lorne. There will be no dreaming of a white Christmas this year.
We all hope to see Mound writing again in the new year, lungta.

The snow has come and sort of gone on Vancouver Island and Richmond is fine also.
The bridges are once more open, but the highways into the interior, not so much.
Merry Christmas
Thank for your posts this year.

It's important to remember that spring is coming, sal. We'll get there through the snowdrifts. Have a good holiday with your gifted family.
