Don’t let humbug bro spoil kids’ playtime together
DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: My wife and I
normally leave our Christmas lights and
lawn decorations out for a month after the
holiday. Same goes for our big tree in the
window. The best decorations were made by
our kids and we believe they deserve more
attention than a couple short weeks around
Christmas.
My crude brother and his family make fun
of us, so we don’t invite them over after
Christmas. My brother calls me, “Santa, the
Christmas Freak.” Last night after dinner,
he decided to drop, uninvited, by himself.
Right away, he was sneering at me about
being too lazy to take our “ridiculous”
decorations down.
My littlest boy heard started crying,
because he loves the holidays more than
anybody. He ran to his bedroom, and my
wife ran after him. She came back ready to
blow sky-high. She pointed her finger at the
door and yelled at my brother to take his
mean mouth and get out of the house. She
said she didn’t want to see him again until
he was ready to apologize.
He stomped out the door, yelling, “Yeah,
when hell freezes over!”
He got what he deserved from my wife,
but I feel sorry for his kids who are my
children’s favourite playmates. Now what
should we do?
— Post-Christmas Explosion, Charleswood
Dear Explosion: It’s not up to you as
Uncle Nasty’s brother to make the first
move to fix this. Leave it to the moms
in the family. When they want the
cousins to play together again they’ll
work out their own solution.
One thing for certain you might
mention to your wife is that it would be
wiser for your kids if play dates were
held under your roof for a while, as
your children may be nervous being in
the same house with your brother, no
matter what has been worked out and
what he’s promised.
Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: I’m usually excit-
ed about the new year, but there’s so much
scary news going on all around the world
my head is spinning.
I’m single and in good health otherwise,
and I’m a daily long-distance walker, but
I feel overwhelmed and anxious. I have
trouble going to sleep at night worrying
about the wars and the politics going on in
the world.
I decided I can only concentrate on one
part of the world, and that is Manitoba and
my close surroundings. What can I do here?
— Anxious, St. James
Dear Anxious: You need to design
an enjoyable life with a weekly routine
that’s over-full at first, and then you
can cut back. Here are some ideas for
you.
Why not get involved in some
activities that could help you meet
like-minded people and do some good.
Volunteering is a great place to start.
Groups dealing with food insecurity,
such as Harvest Manitoba, regularly
look for people to help out. You could
also consider recreational sports or
more arts-related endeavours as well.
If you’re interested in music, and ar-
en’t an experienced singer, Margaret’s
Choir is a non-audition city ensemble
whose mission is “to sing for personal,
choral and global harmony.” They aim
to make a difference for both choir
members and the community at large,
and describe their repertoire as “var-
ied and eclectic.”
As for sports, pickleball is taking off
like crazy and you’ll make new friends
taking part.
Get connected and busy, and your
mind won’t have to dwell so much on
the negativity of the world at large.
Please send your questions and comments to
lovecoach@hotmail.com or Miss Lonelyhearts c/o the

MOON ALERT: There are no restrictions to
shopping or important decisions. The moon is in
Taurus.
● ARIES (March 2-April 9)
You’re in the mood to discuss how to use your
money, assets and belongings in the most effi-
cient way to improve your life. After all, what you
own should help you, not hinder you. Incidentally,
someone older might have excellent advice for
you.
● TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
The moon is in your sign dancing nicely with
Saturn, which makes you willing to accept your
duties and responsibilities. You see there are gains
to be made by keeping things practical and or-
derly, even to the extent of putting your physical
comfort second.
● GEMINI (May 2-June 20)
This is an excellent day to do research of any kind
because your mind is focused. If you need answers
to questions, you will keep looking until you find
them. You’ll be like a dog with a bone. A boss or
parent might be impressed.
● CANCER (June 2-July 22)
This is a good day for a serious discussion with a
friend or member of a group, especially someone
older or more experienced, because whatever
advice they give you could cause you to change
your future goals. It’s often wise to stand on the
shoulders of those who have gone before you.
● LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
People notice and respect you because you exude
confidence, patience and authority. This isn’t
surprising because you’re working hard right now,
busting your buns to get things done. Fortunately,
the resources of others will help you.
● VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Because you have a strong desire to do something
different (perhaps travel or making travel plans),
a discussion with an older friend might help you
see ways to do this. You’re in a playful mood
and eager to explore the arts, social outings and
vacations. Good luck.
● LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Home and family are your focus now, even though
you’re uncertain about your long-term direction.
Discussions with a work colleague or someone
older or more experienced might help you reduce
your debt or see better ways of using shared
resources and property.
● SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 2)
You have to go more than halfway to get along
with others. That’s just how it is — no biggie.
However, discussions about the care and educa-
tion of children might come up. This is a good time
to look at these issues because the resources of
others can help you this month.
● SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 2)
This is a positive day for you because you’ll be able
to accomplish a lot, primarily because you’re in the
mood to roll up your sleeves and get things done.
Your approach to everything, daily duties as well
as your health, will be practical and realistic.
● CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 9)
With the sun in your sign, you’re powerful. This
is why discussions with your kids or a decision to
make social arrangements will be done in a prac-
tical, orderly fashion. You might also have a social
outing with someone older or more established.
● AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 8)
A discussion with a parent or someone older or
more experienced might benefit you. They might
give you practical advice, especially about how to
do things at home or deal with a family member.
Meanwhile, you might shop for something beauti-
ful for yourself or a loved one.
● PISCES (Feb. 9-March 20)
You’re in a practical frame of mind, which is why
you will have serious discussions with others
about how to get things done efficiently. It’s a
good day to make plans for the future.
