One Prompt a Week During Holiday Season

[mxcatmoon]

It's that time of year. A bunch of holidays looming, many jobs going into their busy season (I know mine is). I expect most of us will be having less free time. With that in mind, I'm going to be posting one prompt word a week instead of two until the end of the year. Since we have no deadlines, past prompts are always open to fill as well. 

Also, just as an FYI, most of the challenge posts are going up around 2:00 AM EST on Fridays due to my work schedule. Just in case anyone would like to know.

I hope everyone enjoys their holidays, any and all that you celebrate!
