global1's JournalRemember Back When The U.S. Post Office Made Two Deliveries Per Day Around Christmas......
just to deliver all the Christmas Cards that were sent around Christmas.
Those days are over. Every year the Christmas Cards I receive are getting sparser and sparser. I just got 10 this year. I used to get close to 100.
Too expensive now. Card prices are up and so are postage stamps.
I've made a decision only to send e-cards and only to people that sent me a card.
With the money I save on cards and postage - I make a donation to a charity.
Seeing That This Is Elon's First Term As President.......
will he make the same mistakes that Tr**p made in his first term?
We're Living A James Bond Novel And,,,,,,
it just went from bad to worse.
We now have two villians to deal with - Tr**p and Elon.
We can only hope that Tr**p and Elon take out each other.
The Story Behind All The Drone Sightings......
The drone sightings are a result of an experimental program by Santa Clause and his Elves.
Santa realizes that it is getting harder and harder for him to cover the world - delivering gifts to all the children on his NICE list.
So he is hoping that delivering gifts on Christmas eve with the help of drones will make the task go easier and will offer him some peace of mind that all the gifts will continue to be delivered.
This is his attempt to bring Christmas into the 21st Century with the help of all the latest technologies.
I know that there are a lot of conspiracy theories surrounding these drone sightings.
I just thought that I'd put to rest all those conspiracy theories with the facts.
I know that some of you reading this will probably list this explanation as a conspiracy theory as well. I'd urge you not to do that - because we don't and Santa doesn't want to disappoint the children of the world.
Maybe A Dumb Question But - Is A Child Born With Autism Or......

Do You Remember As A Kid - Glass Wax Christmas Stencils - For Decorating Windows & Mirrors?......
I remember looking forward to the day that my Mom would pull out the stencil set and we would work together designing all sorts of Christmas scenes on the window looking out to the street.
We'd tape the stencil onto the window and sponge the Glass Wax over the stencil. When the Glass Wax dried we'd take the stencil off the window and like magic the pic on the stencil was displayed promenently on the window.
We'd also decorate the mirrors inside the house. We'd use food coloring to color the glass wax to make the pics look even more spectacular.
I kinda would like to get my hands on some of those stencils and experience this childhood memory again - but I haven't seen Glass Wax being sold anywhere in a long time.
Does anybody know if Glass Wax is still available or if there is a replacement product that can be used instead.
These stencils and getting a new part for my Lionel train set from Santa every Christmas are two fond memories of my Christmas Days past.
Those were the days - things were so much simpler then!!! That was a long time ago as I'm 76y/o now.
Happy Holidays DU!!! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!
Leading With His Chin......
Tr**p seems to be leading with his chin to start WWIII.
Come on - 100% tariffs on China!!!
I'm Taking A Time Out From MSNBC Since Nov. 6th......
Why? I guess it's because I feel let down by it. They didn't prepare me for the outcome we wound up with.
When I tuned in on the 5th there was a sense of giggyness. Like it was almost a sure thing that Harris would win and she bring along taking back the House and expand our seats in the Senate.
From the time Harris was made the nominee that's the impression I got from MSNBC. I was breathing easy knowing that the Tr**p nightmare would be over.
After we lost I felt demoralized and let down.
We were that close!!! Like the Chicago Bears in the last seconds of today's game.
I'll probably go back to watching MSNBC but for now and at least for a little while I'll be watching Hallmark movies. At least I can be sure of their outcomes.
