Merry Christmas!                                              12/23/23

Another trip  around the  sun. The  longest days  of darkness  are now
behind  us, only  just, and  the days  of light  are coming  back once
again.  I,  for  one,  can't  wait. I  don't  usually  have  too  much
depression during  the darker  months, but they  are disruptive  to my
sleep patterns to a degree.

And of course, if you're  Christian or socially connected to Christian
traditions, then you may celebrate Christmas: so, Merry Christmas!
