OK, we need some fun news. And I've long joked about taking the month of December off to celebrate. Toss in there are 12 days of christmas. And if you celebrate Christmas in the Western or Eastern rites, you can drag it out to 24 days!
I have to admit some confusion since I thought the Ukrainian Church was under Rome. It turns out that the Eastern Orthodox Church partially recognizes the Orthodox Church of Ukraine as the only canonical successor of the Metropolitanate of Kyiv, while the Catholic Church recognizes the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church as the only canonical successor.
So, 24 days of Christmas it is!
