I thought this would be a good one to start your Monday off:
I dropped off some chocolates for the ladies who work at my favourite McDonald's restaurant the other day. I got the brightest smiles as I wished them a 'Merry Christmas'. They wouldn't let me pay for the small latte I ordered. That made my day too!
Later on that same day, I had lunch with another lady I met years ago at my gym. She dislikes the season perhaps because she has no close family left and maybe just a few friends. I gave her a print of one of my Christmas cards that I painted, one with fancy red shoes, and she really appreciated it. She said she would put it up on her mantlepiece. It did seem like her style, to match her new car!

Love the joke. Nice that you spread some cheer in McD, I am sure those ladies appreciated it. Valerie
ooops, I had to delete my comment, I messed it up, I will try again, You have such a big heart,,, so kind, thats a great comic too!!!
I love this joke Christine!
Funny:)
You are a very sweet and generous friend, Christine.
Aloha from Hawaii.
Nice! Not many people would think of giving goodies to the people who work at a restaurant.
That is a pretty fun comic. Cats are pretty bad with Christmas trees too but at least they only see them as giant playpens and not bathrooms. I think I'd enjoy working and having someone dropping food or presents off for me.
Luckily my dog has never thought about that with the tree. Though she's also a girl dog, and they just pick a spot in the yard.
Very sweet post. You are spreading the joy of Christmas through kindness.
Love the joke and I scrolled back and loved the red shoes, wonderful. Just popping by to wish you a wonderful Christmas Sharon, oh I might try and make thiose oatmeal cookies too!
Funny funny! You are so sweet and bring joy to so many people in your life! I am glad to know you, even though only online...
Sounds like a super fun holiday, day.
that's really wonderful, Christine! how lovely of you and I am sure all were touched by your thoughtfulness. I plan on a card for at least on of our fave baritas who always works the holidays. I still have your little card too. :)
Oh, and yes, funny funny cartoon. thanks for that.
These are the things that can make the holiday season so wonderful. The acts of kindness and giving. The true spirit of the season...
I hope you do make them Sharon, Merry Christmas to you!
Aww Michael, so glad you've kept that card.
Thanks Lisa!
and giving truly is receiving Mary!
Merry Christmas Christine :)
Since I starting popping in to see you I've tried to take your cheerful attitude onboard - I don't think I've ever heard you grizzle about anything. Life needs more of your sort :)

Cathy truth be known I am quite the worrier, with problems like everyone else. I try to keep the blog positive however, bearing in mind that my life is generally good for now anyway, thanks.
You are really the sort of person who makes Christmas a wonderful season. I love your spirit.
