Have you ever hit rock bottom at any time in your life? And if so, was it a good thing?

I came into our condo yesterday , expecting supper to be ready, but Esther wasn’t there. The hallway door was unlocked so  I had a pretty good idea where she was. I went next door to the Amenities Room, opened the door  and there was Esther and her sister busy with something I cannot understand or imagine anyone doing.

Those of you about my age (ancient) will remember this line from an Everly Brothers song: “Whenever I want you all I have to do is dream, dream, dream.”

Two famous Christmas haters were Ebenezer Scrooge in the 19th and 20th century and the Grinch in the late 20th century. Mean and miserable as they were they were necessary to give the true Christmas Spirit something to fight against and win.

There was a year long ago when Christmas drove me bananas. Almost did me in.
