It was about 2,000 years ago. And today doesn’t mark the exact day and time. But that’s another topic for later. Nevertheless some shepherds were on the job, whatever day and time it was.

Over the years I’ve written some Christmas songs. And one of them became one of my favorite Christmas songs. Hey, who says a songwriter can’t like his own music? Not me, that’s who. Yes, it’s perfectly fine to have enough ego to admit you like something you create. It would be kinda stupid to be creating stuff you didn’t like. Where’s the good in … The rest of the story…
The Christmas hustle was revved up to a full bustle, here in the hometown, this past weekend.

We’re in the Christmas countdown for 2024. And, as I write this, it’s only 7 more days till the big day. But the Christmas countdown I think about these days, started way back when. And I’m sure I don’t have to tell you that eternity is a lot longer than the 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, or 90 years you might live in … The rest of the story…
