Today in church, Pastor George asked who still has their Christmas tree up. I was the only one to raise my hand. He and a few other people cautioned me "not to feel bad", because they only just barely took their trees down this past week.

Feel bad???

I have my tree up deliberately.

Today is Ukrainian New Year's Day!!!

Duh.

It's fun to be Ukrainian!
It's nice to be a "Uke"!
If you were born Ukrainian,
Well, consider it a fluke!
It's alright to be a Spaniard
An Italian or a Jew!
But it's so fun to be Ukrainian!
I'm Ukrainian; how 'bout you?
