The Holidays :]

The holidays are always an exciting time for me while I've mentioned in the past, but to be honest, this year has been a lot. So I wanted to write y'all a short message to tell you a few things.

First of all, everyone at Shinie's Scribbles (especially me and Frank) want you to know that we're proud of you, my jellybeans. You're doing a good job. You should take a moment and try and be proud of yourself. You may not be where you want to be, but if you keep working at it, you will persevere (please just keep your goals legal as Frank has enough issues with keeping Phil out of jail).

Second off, it's okay to not be excited about the holidays. There's a lot that can be stressful or flat out unpleasant for some. But please try and remember that to some, it means joyful things. And if someone you care about is excited, just smile and nod, and find something else you both can be excited about. Let them have their flap-doodle.

Lastly, please stay happy, healthy, safe and warm. I will see you all next year! Have a happy season!
