GRATEFUL GIRL's THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Sponsored by hbkcpa.com/consultants/melissa-crowley/

​Um, I don't want to pressure anybody or anything.

It's just that -- well, it's time, yo.

Time to de-deck the halls...to untrim the tree...to take Santa down off the rooftop, you dig?

And I'm saying this as gently as possible but it's mid freaking January, people; get on with it, already! 

Tune into this space on Sunday for my column "Ho Ho Hoping the Tree Falls Soon" --- Christmas extenders beware... ;-)

Mt. 4:23  Alleluia, alleluia. Jesus preached the Gospel of the Kingdom and cured every disease among the people. .  Gospel Mk 1:40-45 A leper came to him and kneeling down begged him and said, "If you wish, you can make me clean." Moved with pity, he stretched out his hand, touched the leper, and said to him,  "I do will it. Be made clean." The leprosy left him immediately, and he was made clean. Then, warning him sternly, he dismissed him at once. Then he said to him, "See that you tell no one anything, but go, show yourself to the priest and offer for your cleansing what Moses prescribed; that will be proof for them." The man went away and began to publicize the whole matter. He spread the report abroad so that it was impossible for Jesus to enter a town openly. He remained outside in deserted places, and people kept coming to him from everywhere.
