For those for whom Christmas is a religious celebration, remember that December 25th is the first day of Christmas. The tradition in most western denominations is that December 25 through January 6 (Epiphany/King’s Day) is part of that season (i.e. The Twelve Days of Christmas). Additionally, eastern Orthodox Christians often have a different set of dates as well. The idea is to celebrate the birth of Jesus on Earth, and that can happen on any day, not just on 12/25.

Thank you for explaining the dates. I never understood it until now.

@uwalummom good morning - I just wanted to let you know I’m here. In So Cal the sky is blue and the sun is shining although it’s just barely 50* right now. I’m going to step out later and put my face into the sun. I hope there’s a little sun where you are and that you can do the same.
