I never got around to sharing my piece from the Examiner last week. So here goes… My twelve days of Christmas. Remember that special feeling, only a few short weeks ago, when you heard the first Christmas song playing on the radio? Now, everywhere we turn those Christmas songs are blaring. Somehow they don’t seem … More There I am in the paper #10
The past few weeks have been hectic and for a little while I’ll admit I began to lose my Christmas spirit.

Here’s my latest article in the Examiner’s Feelgood supplement. It’s funny how some readers enjoy one and others another.
