As I am writing this, the "Countdown Clock" is reading 9 days 8 hrs 30 min 24 sec until Christmas Day. Let the fun begin. As we say, it will be here before we know it. Check out the "Countdown Clock" in the upper right corner to determine how long it will be until Christmas. That is, unless you have small children. Then, they will probably remind you on an hourly basis just how long it is until Christmas.
MERRY CHRISTMAS...

Christmas is a federal holiday celebrated on December 25 and New Year Day follows a week later, also as a federal holiday. This year Christmas is on Wednesday, December 25, 2024 and New Year's Day is on Wednesday, January 1, 2025. Christmas is both a sacred religious holiday and a worldwide cultural and commercial phenomenon. For two hundred plus years, people around the world have been observing it with traditions and practices that are both religious and secular in nature. Christians celebrate Christmas Day as the anniversary of the birth of Jesus of Nazareth, a spiritual leader whose teachings form the basis of their religion. Popular customs include exchanging gifts, decorating Christmas trees, attending church, and of course sharing big meals with family and friends. For the kids and grown-ups as well, the Christmas Season is a time to wait for Santa Claus to arrive. December 25-Christmas Day-has been a federal holiday in the United States since 1870.
Have a safe and enjoyable Christmas and I hope your loved ones will be a part of your holiday. Happy Holidays.
