And special end of year message from Judi

The irreverent MN&R story created for December just didn't feel appropriate given current challenges on the planet, so instead, I'm sharing this holiday photo taken with two of my siblings (sorry, Scott, you weren't born yet!) and three cousins. That's me in the front, as jolly as the rest of the bunch and full of Christmas cheer.
What are we looking at? Perhaps the photographer, or one of Santa's elves, was holding out a crystal ball... the essence of 2020 swirling within? Even Santa looks vexed. Or just pissed. I don't remember bringing him any cookies.

Thank you for taking the time to read MN&R this year (hatched in May 2020, a true product of the quarantine) and to all who've reached out with comments and feedback via email or the form on The Author page. I love hearing from you! It's heartening to know there are other nuts... I mean, those who share an appreciation of the ridiculous, out there. Gratitude.
HERE'S TO A HEALTHY AND WONDERFUL 2021!
You haven't changed a bit!!! Cute as ever:)
Hahaha!!! You 3 little ones look apprehensive, us 3 big ones look stoned. Santa looks truly in pain. Thanks for the memory. And for all the excellent laughs this year with your wild and wonderful stories. Big sister very proud! xoxo
Love all the stories and your clever, unique writing! The Christmas photo was fun to see and so interesting to see everyone's look on their faces....even Santa looked like he was a bit peeved and wanted to go on break! Congratulations on this awesome site! Laaaarmer!
That photo is a classic, and hysterical! Santa might be looking like that because it was the 10081 photo he had taken that day?! Merry Merry to the wonderful Muse, News and Reviews Oz behind the curtain, looking forward to reading more of your witty and whimsical words in the New Year!
Meet the glums. That said the one front and center is really a little cutie pie, I have to say... And that is nothing to do with the fact that I married her when she was all growed up!
