Joleen, I confess that I was unsettled to read how prepared you are for Christmas and could not fully read your posting without a feeling of panic until I got back home this afternoon after spending three hours in town getting my Christmas groceries, gifts, etc. one still yet to buy, done. We have snow here also in Southern Ontario and while I would not be adverse to a light snowfall tomorrow, I think it will happen on Christmas day. Two of our families will come on Christmas day to spend the night. I don't think the two adult kids have spent a night under the same roof since they went off to university. They are looking forward to it; I am too. Family, if we have them nearby, is what Christmas is about for me.

I think, however, of the seniors I call once a week, with Telecheck, a great programme for supporting seniors who live alone and while some have families and will be with them over Christmas; some don't. This is when the hype of Christmas really bothers me because it increases a sense of loss in those whose Christmases may have been filled with families and now are not.

Sara, there is nothing like an antibiotic to clear up a sinus infection. Sometimes, it just goes too far and there's nothing to be done but get a prescription and deal with it.
