True for past decade and past score of years progressively. We have forgotten what happiness is. We have become socially inept. All out for ourselves individually.

When a can of green beans has jumped fron under a $1 to over $3 in less than 3 years, the price of a new garage door has almost tripled in in less than 3 years, absolutely!! This has happened with everything!!

I believe more angry, would be a better question. Confidence in our government is at a historic low.

Happiness is folly. Get hard. Raise your own food. Have a huge family and you'll find eternal joy.

Never family. Parents usually hosted; but I have hosted friends once I moved away and was no longer close by to enjoy a family-hosted gathering. I did host cpl friends this Xmas day with fondue.

There's something magical about a sprinkling of snow on Christmas 😊 And heavy enough snow means snow angels, snowmen, and snowball fights! ❄️

Belinda Kitchen

Christmas should be white . It's just not the same !!!! You wouldn't want the 4th of July in winter ? Just Christmas should have snow it means clean !!!!

The older I get - since I don't ski any more - snow just represents work for me, so if I never saw another snow flake, it would be just fine with me!
