I may be a scrooge, but I hope everyone enjoys whatever they celebrate. There is a lot of suffering in this world, so if any event helps people in any way, even if it’s just emotionally, I’m all for it.

Sounds like you're not a Scrooge after all.

This has been an awful year for me. Unable to find work, having to sell off important assets. And for some reason iOS autocorrect is still terrible. Here's to hoping next year will be better.

Take heart. My wife almost died early this year from a hospital deciding to rush her Sodium level restoration because beds were scarce and profitable. She now suffers from extreme anxiety, her previous life as a happy, well-balanced mom is over, and as I write, she’s in the next room chattering in nonsense to herself because it’s how her brain copes. It’s worse in the mornings, gets better, briefly, in the afternoons…

Praying next year is better for you and your family
