December is here and most have a busier schedule than the rest of the year. Tensions are high as people start the annual rush to complete the year and prepare for the next. I have to make time to check e-mail and do some of the other 'routine' things I take for granted the rest of the year. I am sure I am not the only one in this situation!

So I manage to check a certain cigar website a few times a week, as well needed R&R. It rarely fails...So many people doing nice things for complete strangers. Amazing!

I am scrambling to put together a package or two so I can get them out today, perhaps tomorrow. The sense of urgency high, yet the stress level low. I am smiling! Not only because I am sending more gifts to strangers, but because I just spent the last twenty minutes reading so many threads of the same thing going on in so many households.

It isn't because December is here...It can't be. I read the same threads last month. And the month before. And the month before that...for the last year.

Heartwarming.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have more boxes to pack.

:D

That is very heartwarming!!! Be prepared Little Rock is about to come under attack...any day now.

I'm surprised you're still Okay.

I put up a thread like this and get a threat in return from a battle tired Marine.

I understand you are suffering from shellshock, and forgive you.

Bless your Big Ugly Marine heart!
