Wishing you peace, love and joy this holiday season!
I looked for a Christmas song this morning and had many choices. I chose a Gen X staple that I haven’t heard in years. I remember the U2 version more than the original by John Lennon. Here is U2’s cover of Happy Christmas.

So this is Christmas
And what have you done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
And so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young
A very Merry Christmas
And a happy new year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas
For weak and for strong
For rich and the poor ones
The road is so long
And so happy Christmas
For black and for white
For yellow and red one
Let's stop all the fight
A very Merry Christmas
And a happy new year

Merry Christmas!

I have another post going up in about 15 minutes about how I spent the last two days driving my oldest kid from Detroit down to Virginia to meet his mom

Happy Christmas to you and yours! I’m the opposite… I recall Lennon’s more than U2’s. Lovely song.

Great song! As soon as I started to read lyrics, I was singing it in my head. Hadn’t thought about that one in years! 🙂 Great memories!
