What’s up, everybody! It’s Monday, December 23rd, 2024. I hope that everybody is having some happy holidays, as we approach Christmas later this week. I am hoping for a Christmas Miracle since I am going through somewhat of a heartbreak, ever since right before Halloween. It’s been really tough on me. I need a new place to stay, a new career job, and a new car, all asap. Any help much appreciated. I’ll try to record a Content Curation video later today. PS. I’ve added Christmas music, from USA, France, Japan, South Korea, and Dutch on recent JETLAG RADIO podcasts. Be sure to enjoy.
