December 21st, 2022

 Yesterday, I didn’t realize that George changed around some letters on The Morning Chalkboard.

Hazel wanted to get in the action. So she left everyone a little message last night. She made me promise not to erase it this morning.
Just remember Hazel…
…someday when you and your brothers are going through all the years of chalkboards, Winter Solstice 2024 was when you scribbled on my Morning Chalkboard.
Today I quoted Walt Whitman.
His message is simple. Never believe what you read and take everything with a grain of salt.
There are usually two sides to every story. Everything you’ve been told, examine it at your own terms.
From here on out, the days will start getting longer. Slow at first, but New Year’s Eve with have a 4:30 sunset in Chicago and the first 5pm sunset is around January 28th.
Bundle up, it’s going to be cold around here today. The perfect day to put some love in the crockpot and under the sheets as well.
The Saturday before Hanukkah and Christmas. Hanukkah Harry and Santa Claus are coordinating their final plans for Tuesday night.
Keep out of their way.
