My house doesn’t have a basement; it has a well that you can walk around in. Down the middle of it is a wall that used to separate part of it off as a furnace room, but at some point the water that regularly bubbles up from below rotted it off at the bottom.

My mom always had to tell me, “we aren’t opening any presents early.” Christmas Eve as a child was tough because I didn’t like to wait. I was the “can’t we just open one present tonight” kid. Marketwise, things are about to change for the better, but we have to wait a little while for it.

Ask just about anyone what state they would like to visit that they haven’t been to yet and I venture to guess that at least 8 out of 10 would say either Hawaii or Alaska. I have had the good fortune to visit both states more than once and both are beautiful and also unique.

I don't do New Year's Resolutions. In fact, I don't do anything "new year." A night owl by nature (I rarely go to bed before midnight), Dec. 31 is the one day of the year I tend to sign off early. I can't tell you the last time I watched the ball drop over Times Square, but I'm sure it was in the mid-1980s.

Republicans take control of the House of Representatives in one week. When that happens, the Jan. 6 committee, with all its members selected by outgoing Speaker Nancy Pelosi, will go out of existence. Now, as the clock ticks down, it appears the committee's demise will leave some significant unanswered questions.

Here's a New Year's resolution: Support Ukraine. Stop Putin. Kyiv needs all the essential weapons of war — tanks and missiles, howitzers and drones. But it also needs less obvious weapons, from diesel-powered generators to long-lasting lightbulbs.
