    Right on Sista! Love your enthusiasm, drive, generosity and over all joyous nature. I say happy birthday little baby Jesus, pass the Turkey and set a place for my dead Mother. Oops did I really say that? Merry Christmas Charlie Brown you block head..
    In other words, my sentiments exactly Colleen. Please let me have this one tradition.

    Very well said. I hope to be able to share some Christmas cheer and wish you a Merry Christmas in person this year given we don’t have regional challenges for the first time in our lives!

    I find it interesting that one doesn’t hear such hoo-hah over Valentine’s Day and St. Patricks’s Day, both “holidays” named for and originally celebrated in honor of Catholic (therefore Christian) saints. I don’t consider myself Christian (or anything else), but I still say Merry Christmas and sing all the associated hymns I learned as a child simply because they’re beautiful. Let’s just focus on a season of love, joy and fellowship. So, Merry Christmas, Happy Yule and Hannukah, etc., etc., etc.

    Well said, and my sentiments exactly. I’d rather someone wish me a Happy/Merry (insert specific holiday observed here) than ‘Happy Holidays’ because it means something to THEM, my particular beliefs notwithstanding – and they are sharing those good wishes with me. How simple is that? Merry Christmas!
