Hey Romeclone! Thanks for wandering by to say "Hello"!

Lena...what does one say to that on a message board? Is it an astrologically-based frustration that I feel this time of year? No. Is it a religion/Jesus's birthday-based frustration? No. Is it a commercially-based, too-much-family-in-a-short-period-of-time, spending-too-much-money based frustration? You betcha!! (Just venting! Whew! Feel better....much thanks!

I think we need to rethink the proximity of the Thanksgiving holiday and the Christmas holiday. If the Thanksgiving holiday is about the harvest, is it correct in the timeframe in relation to climate? Wouldn't the first states settled have been too cold that far into November? Without any real means of storage in the days of the 1st Thanksgiving, wouldn't they have celebrated right after the growing season was over? Say early September or so...

(This would not only give more time between these 2 major holidays in the US, it would give more sanity-refractory-period-time to those dealing with insane relatives!! ROFL!

I would think I would not need to explain the above post to an Aquarian, but, might need to do some with other signs...but, perhaps I am wrong...I have been wrong before...

Hmmm...had I been paying more attention, I would have posted a ") 🙂" after my first post also...

I wonder if I have an aversion to ")"....

Interesting how it kinda looks like a face...

Perhaps I smoked a bit too much in the 80's...
or do you see it too??

If you're talking about being in a x mas mood, then sure i have some x spirit left, or however you define that. But if me saying "F*king" was wrong, then think what you want, not in the mood for this.

Yes, I did have a nice Christmas, Romeclone...although, I still have one more to go...probably it will take place after New Year's..
How about you?

Lena...I didn't mean anything...I was tired of insane family members...(not truly insane...)

Mine was white too! But...aren't you in Oklahoma?
I heard there was snow in the south...
Hope travel wasn't too difficult!
(We are used to difficult travel due to winter weather up here...not that we love it!!)

Well, I talked to a lot of my family members who I usually just ignore and vice versa. But this year was different I talked to everybody and had a good time. I dont really like family gatherings too much, I usually keep to myself and hope that its over with soon. Plus I have plenty of those insane relatives like you were talking about!

That's cool, Romeclone! That is very cool! Oh yeah, I have insane family members...lol...but, I do try to communicate AND have fun!I have found that bonding with family members (regardless of sanity) can be very rewarding...I usually find something about them that I enjoy and it helps me to understand them better and be more forgiving of their idiocyncrasies!
I am like way proud of you!! 🙂
