We still have needy people here in Allen, Fairview and Lucas, and they still require assistance even though the holidays are over.

We get no government money; we rely on volunteer donation.

We are so grateful, but not many of (those) donations we utilize for our ongoing clients.

Tons of people are looking to go overseas for skiing holidays.

My dad used to say that the holidays are when you get a whole bunch of people that really aren't that close and don't know each other that well and overcrowd them into a small room for an extended period of time so they can make each other miserable.

With the holidays, we don't have a lot of people putting listings on, or a lot of traffic from prospective buyers.
