Merry Merry and Happy Happy…

Whatever holiday you celebrate at this time of year — Christian Christmas, secular Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, or just a few relaxing days off while everyone else celebrates — I wish for you peace, love, joy, health and happiness throughout the year. And chocolate. Lots and lots of dark, rich chocolate…

    And I value you, my virtual friend.

    Your writing style has brough many laughs when I didn’t think I had a chuckle left in me. Keep ‘em coming.

    You let me vent and rant and rave when I was ready to behead a couple of people. Their upper 10% is still attached, thanks in no small part to you.

    You’re the one person I know of who I can share the Titans’ victories and defeats with. You also know how beautiful that “sea of orange” at Neyland is, when the Vols have a packed house.

    And you actually know what Sundrop is, and if I were to ask, you’d send me a case, but we both know I’d end up in BIG trouble with Boss over that one, because where there’s Sundrop, there’s JD….at least for me.

    Next to my beloved stepson, who I just got acquainted with in August, you’re the best present I’ve had all year :)

    (… Winston blushing… not knowing what to say or how to respond…)

    … except to say to TF, you’re welcome… anytime… glad I happened to be here when you needed a laugh or an ear… Happy Holidays, my friend…

    Have a wonderful holiday; it’s been great getting to “know” you over this past year.
    Cheers from the Great White North

    Winston, it has been nice getting to ‘know’ you these past few months. It is a bit surprising that I feel a unique relationship with a few virtual friends. But I like it a lot.

    Hope you have had an amazing day!

    The end of a quiet, but delightful day…how quickly all the preparations are over and done with. Two of my children shared the day with me this year….and the other two by phone. Kind of strange not having ALL of them here…but we made it work.

    I hope your day was wonderful for you Winston. I’m sure you managed to fit some football in somewhere….we did too.

    As the new year approaches…I want to thank you for being a wonderful part of my past year.

    You’ve made me laugh,
    You’ve made me think,
    You’ve made me blush with a smile and a wink. You’ve cheered my day with the comments you send. You touch my heart…my generous friend.

    I wish the very best of EVERYTHING for you in the New Year Winston…..love and peace….-Joy

    Just two minutes left here in Juneau to get this in before it’s too late:

    Merry Christmas.
