Christmas Eve…
…And all through the world, not an economy was stirring, not even in the United States. Maybe I exaggerate, maybe not. I am sure many people are in a festive mood, but some are obviously not. There is snow on the ground outside, so at least Christmas will be white for me. My uncle, however, will not be visiting from Canada, like he has for the last 6 years. He will not have his job that much longer, so he has to save his money. It is a little saddening. I am still looking forward to tomorrow, however. You have to have some kind of hope. That is part of the Christmas spirit, in addition to giving. But charities are feeling the crunch as well, although some are still struggling to donate. I donated a few days ago. The businesses are struggling. It is a mess all around. Still hold strong.
