The Whitehall Ledger - Serving Southern Jefferson County in the Great State of Montana

Dear Jo,

Are you competitive? I am!!! There is going to be a local Christmas light display contest and I want to win. Actually, I MUST win!!!! I find myself driving around town checking on who is decorating, and thinking to myself, “I will buy more lights, more tinsel, more yard displays and more, more, more!!!!” How can I stop before I put myself into debt or worse?

Signed,

Ready to Self Destruct!

Dear Self Destruct,

First, DO NOT self-destruct, or do anything that will be worse. You need to settle the heck down, take a few deep breaths and get yourself together. This is a community...
