This will go down in history as the Christmas where I completely stopped giving a fuck.

Noted for future reference.

Been a busy Christmas. We were up till midnight getting everything set up, then we finally went to bed. At 4am I was sleeping, then woken up by my 8 year old saying "I love you daddy!" I opened my eyes and there she was. She was also there at 5am 6am, and finally we all got out of bed at 7am ( Read more... )

Merry Christmas everyone! Last night I went to midnight mass at the local Catholic church, no fire and brimstone which was a change. It's actually funny; the last time I went was earlier this year after I busted a bet with God on the Ravens (God's funny that way).

Food coma. Big turkey, stuffing, dressing, potatoes, beans, corn, etc etc etc. Full and haaaaaapeeee!

Merry Christmas everyone. The kids are driving us nuts, but I'll take it one day at a time. Snow turned to rain, but it's still a pretty silent night.

Not for much longer, but there it is.

Wow, it's snowing today. Hope it stays that way, I just drove the tractor up to the driveway with the snowblower. Ready for the winter we are.

All the shopping is done, all the food is laid in, we're good to go.
