Patience.  That is what this time of year is ALL about.  Patience.  Lines are everywhere.  Lines to get into the parking lot of the mall, lines to park once you’re in, lines to pay, lines to get out of the parking lot.  Lines. Lines. Lines.  And just as you are feeling pressured and stressed, so are all those people behind the registers trying to help you out.  So as we hit the home stretch of the holiday season remember this - your manners.  Don’t forget to say Please and Thank You to all the kind folks trying to get not only you but the line of people behind you on your merry way!  Hold the door open for folks.  And be patient.  Because everyone has somewhere they’ve got to be.  Spread the cheer and you’ll find yourself enjoying the season!

Happy Holidays!
