We pick them off us and 3 pets fur and put them in a vial of alcohol. Too many so early. I get at least 3 on me/day.

Scientific quantification. We have a vial every year to compare. Not walking in woods, just driveway 30' to house or take trash out. Mow once/week.

Ticks are absolutely horrible this year, I've pulled numerous off both children and myself and we haven't even been deep into the woods, just on walking trails and in parks.

Yes. In the past 10 years, I have maybe found two ticks on me. In the past two weeks, I have had found two. We are always outside with the grands. Having Alpha Gal sucks (no pun intended), I don't need for it to get worse.

Not more than usual. Pro-tip, get Frontline (or equivalent) for your indoor+outdoor pets. It helps keep ticks out of your house.

Trump has destroyed every thing. Living in a median begging for money for my booze...but still have my phone and EBT card.

Amen, to that Eric. I know exactly how you feel, and what you are saying. A liberal's interpretation of Proverbs 22:9. Your satire is exquisite.

Never had a big budget for holidays or birthdays. We have too much stuff already so we concentrate on time together and a few useful thoughtful gifts, often hand-made.

Obviously, an article regarding Christmas, will not get many views in a blue city like Columbia.

On Christmas, my kids often just ask me for meaningful advice. They are in their fifties, and they have learned enough to know, that they can always learn more. We still give each other the benefits of our skills that we have acquired over the years. These gifts are priceless, and they last forever.

Christmas commemorates the birth of Jesus Christ, believed to be the Son of God. The celebration focuses on the Incarnation, or God becoming human. You don't need money to celebrate that.
