I'm sorry if I gave the wrong impression. She was agreeing with me that some people would be offended but she wasn't. It has been a long day! As Jan would say, tough, if you are offended at something that means so much to lots of Americans. I find it offensive that some people do not make a stand and keep up Christmas decorations. I find them all very pretty and meaningful. There is 1 house about a mile from ours whose owners go all out for lights, etc. It is a showplace every year but the neighbors put up with all the traffic. It even had a lighted train one year. Think a neighbor up the street from them has it now. Most of the street has gone to decorating. I think that one family starts putting up lights, etc back in October or early November. Very beautiful.

How are you doing tonight? How is the knee? We had a good weekend but I'm glad to be home. I'm TIRED!!!! But we had good family time. Found some good gifts and hopefully the rest of the week will be CALM.

Hope all is well with you!

I've been making it a habit to answer every "Happy Holiday" greeting I get with a hearty "Merry Chritmas!" I've had no corrections or complaints and most people seem genuinely grateful for the greeting. Imagine that! :^)

Well .. I'm sorry I misunderstood what you said. I'm glad to know the clerk was actually in agreement with you.
