I certainly didn't mean to ignore my blog for so long....but I just got involved with stuff and....well....you know. Of course I will apologize. And I am also sorry I didn't complete my next chapters of My Story as promised. Well...I'll try to do better after Christmas.

I LOVE THIS HOLIDAY

I haven't accomplished anything...ANYTHING...this Christmas. My gift giving will be uninspired. All the dear friends I have ignored will remain so. All I can do is have a La Cage moment and sing loudly..."Life's not worth a damn...Til you can say, 'Hey World! I am what I am."

So...do something wonderful for Christmas. Tell someone you love them. Eat a lot...and remember why we are celebrating.

Late on Christmas Eve I'll get a special feeling. Like a mantle of new-fallen snow, a feeling of contented anticipation as I sit in the dim light of the twinkling Christmas tree. Outside....

"The market place is empty
No more traffic in the street.
All the builders' tools are silent
No more time to harvest wheat;
Busy housewives cease their labors,
In courtrooms no debate.
Work on earth is all suspended,
As the King comes thru the gate.

Oh, the King is coming,
The King is coming!
I just heard the trumpets sounding,
And now I see His face.

Oh!The King is coming.
The King is coming.
Praise God! He's coming for me!"

    Hey, Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to you my friend. Did you see the news reports on Fr. Illo from St. Joes in Modesto? After the election he sent out a letter to all parishoners asking that they go to confession before celebrating communion IF they voted for a known pro-abortion candidate. Love ya, K&A

    Merry Christmas from way out west. I'd sure like to hear the KDWB Christmas Carol musical again. Cindi AKA Whoopie Woman

    Indeed the Christmas Season is upon us. And, as usual much too fast. Seems the season gets shorter every year and I find less time to enjoy the little things - decorations, carols, snow, and those special holiday eats and drinks. (Although I did watch all my favorite Christmas classics - "Miracel on 34th Street", "Bells of St. Mary's", "White Christmas", "It's a Wonderful Life", "A Christmas Story", "The Bishop's Wife" and the best of 'em all "Scrroge" (the 1951 Alastair Sim version)) Next year I am not going to let this get away from me. Damn it. I think I made that same resolution last year. And perhaps the year before. This time I'm serious.

    Thanks, Rob, for reminding us why we celebrate the season. The KING has come for us.
