Merry Christmas all who enter. Today’s diary is an alternative gift that I am proud to give you. I also offer you a smile, a blessing of hope and happiness for your future and a request that you return often and spend time with the regular crew of MOTlies.
I will continue after the page break and group greeting.
Morning Open Thread is a daily, copyrighted post from a host of editors and guest writers. We support our community, invite and share ideas, and encourage thoughtful, respectful dialogue in an open forum.
This is a post where you can come to share what’s on your mind and stay for the expansion (and often music). The diarist is on independent time (a schedule of their own) and gets to take a nap when he/she needs, or may just wander off and show up again later. So you know, it's a feature, not a bug.
As an international group, we do not expect you to listen to the standard fare piped through a speaker at the grocery, when you could have a popular tune from another country. Here’s another.
As acting elf (stand in for our regular Saturday morning host FunningForrest) I invite you to partake of one more song. I hope it finds you safe, well and loved. Joy be yours this day and more to come.
If you have time, stay and spend a moment with any of the crew that attend on this happy holiday.
