It’s that time of year, my friends. The Winter Solstice, the longest night of the year for us in the Northern Hemisphere, has arrived.
Of course, that other usurper holiday is just around the corner now. I speak of the dreaded consumer nightmare, christmas. My husband and I are boycotting xmas this year, and hopefully for many more to come.
That’s not to say I will snub the eggnog if it comes around, or miss a meal on xmas eve with the family.
But no obligatory gift or card exchange, no tree, no decorations, nothing. It’s been great so far, not being forced into false frivolity and frenzied shopping with everyone else. It’s just another season.
But I do like the changing of the seasons, so the Winter Solstice is as good a time as any to say hello and have a happy winter. It’s been cold here lately, with weird warm days in between that really throw everything off. We’ve already had more snow so far this year than all of last year.
Anyhoo, I just wanted to share some happy lolcats with you today. Every day is a good day to smile. 
Whatever holiday you celebrate this season, be good to one another and have fun. If you are like me and don’t celebrate any of them, have a happy winter and be safe and have fun too!
And now for my favorites!
May you all have a Happy Winter Solstice, and Ceiling Cat be with you!

I have the “dress your cat in gay apparel” one. It reminds me of when we’d dress the cat up in reindeer antlers every year. He was decidely not merry.

Funny how the grumpiness of a cat dressed in gay apparel is inversely proportional to the manic laughter and hilarity of the cat’s owners. HA!
