Give Us This Day Our Daily Thread December 1st through December 31st 2025

My partner has a longer than 24hours sleep cycle, so we tend to 'spin around'. Also, neither of us deal well with the heat, so we both end up semi nocturnal during summer. I actually take vitamin D despite living in Australia because I go outside at this time of year so little.

So, never try and figure out what Australian daytime is from my posts, because my sleep wake pattern is a moving target.

MONDAY DECEMBER 22ND 2025

Good Monday morning my darlings. I hope you have a fantastic day today. Love all your posts. Keep them coming please.

On This Day in History – December 22

A little history, a little chaos, and a reminder that the world has always been weird…


1989 – A dictator’s rule collapses (on live TV!)
On this day, Romania’s longtime communist leader Nicolae Ceaușescu fled the capital after massive protests. Within days, his regime was over. It was one of the most dramatic endings to a dictatorship in modern history—and much of it unfolded on television. History with popcorn-level drama.


1968 – Humans head for the Moon
The astronauts of Apollo 8 were already on their way to the Moon today, preparing to become the first humans to orbit it just days later. Imagine casually floating through space right before Christmas. No big deal.


1894 – France convicts the wrong man
French army officer Alfred Dreyfus was wrongly convicted of treason on this date, launching one of the most infamous miscarriages of justice in history. It took years for the truth to come out—proof that bad investigations and tunnel vision are nothing new.
