Morning all. Two trees up. Lights on the outside done. Time to wrap!

Better still its 31 out this fine am. Brrrrrr!

With don't have kids. We are old enough that none of our friends have little kids. About twice per decade we put up a tree then we rennet what a pain that is.

how clear is the plastic once it is on the windows?

ahhhh its post turkeyt monday!!!!!! got to work and the network was on the fritz!!! Fixed for now switch failure.

I usually spend Christmas day with my brother and his family...He has 3 kids and 20 grandkids. I usually take it as a challenge to find a gift to give each of the 20 kids the same thing that they all will like, and it is cheap. My brother and his kids get a little preturbed because all the grandkids look forward to seeing what Uncle Richard is going to get them more than their parents or grandparents.

Well, there has been a riff in my brother's family with one of the two brothers resigning from the family business. I was told that since there were problems they wouldn't be all getting together this year and it would be a good year for me to stop giving all the kids a gift. Hmmmm...

Oh yeah, I usually make a quart of Mango Salsa for all the adults I gift for Christmas. With my foot and the not standing thing I will not be able to do that this year.

Going to be slim pickins from Richard this year.

oh, boy. family drama. i hate that crap.

Was planning to get each grandkid a hex bug battle bot.

Isn't family fun? NOT!!!!

the new dog just met wally, our male cat. LOL!!! ozzie will not soon forget what a pissed off cat will do to his nose.

This would be fun...

Toys R Us has them.

Drank way too much last night, been working since 0900......probably get home around 2200-2300.........

well, the new dog and our newfoundland got in a fight this morning. i saw that coming. the problem is that our newfoundland now has a 1 inch gash through the skin where her neck and shoulder meet. dammit. i started her on antibiotics and if it doesn't close by tomorrow morning, she'll be going to the vet. they can't fit me in this afternoon, anyway, and i don't think she is going to let me suture her, so there it is. meanwhile, she isn't going to bleed to death, so antibiotics is about all i can do. what a PITA.

if its not family its pets........

off to the shooting range.

friends, family or pets?
