Happy Hanukkah!

Today is the first day of Hanukkah, the Jewish Festival of Lights that is usually around much earlier in the month than Christmas, and lasts a bit longer than Christmas does. This year, however, the Festival of Lights is literally in the Christmas period.

I want to wish everyone out there a very Happy Hanukkah.

The gifts I would like this year aren't really all that complicated. Well, most of them anyway. First off, a year (relatively) free of illness. Second, a year free of back pain (caused by the bulging disc) and foot pain (caused by whatever). Third, for my diabetes management to be under better control. For life to be less stressful for the most part. And finally, for peace on earth, and an end to war.

So Chag Sameach to all my Jewish friends, and enjoy the Festival of Lights for this year!
